Raman spectroscopy is a powerful tool for the analysis of complex energetic materials. In this work, this technique has been used to observe the inter-molecular interactions occurring in nitrocellulose-based propellants containing 1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazinane (RDX) and plasticized with 2,4-dinitro-2,4-diazahexane (DNDA6). The plasticization mechanism of nitrocellulose by DNDA6 was observed. RDX was found to be markedly uninvolved in chemical interactions in these matrices, hinting at a potential loss of stability in compositions for LOVA (LOw Vulnerability Ammunitions).
