1,2,4-Butanetriol-1,4-dinitrate(Cat No.:M106397) is a chemical compound that serves as a key ingredient in the synthesis of explosives and propellants. This organic nitrate ester is derived from 1,2,4-butanediol, a polyol, through a nitration process that adds nitrate groups, enhancing its energetic properties. Its structure includes two nitrate groups attached to the terminal carbons of the butanetriol backbone. This configuration imparts high stability and energy, making it suitable for applications requiring controlled explosive properties. Additionally, its use in propellants is favored due to its ability to produce less smoke and residue compared to other materials.
