ABSTRACT:
An improved process for producing colloidal nitrocellulose having a high vimetric loading density by a shock gel type process is provided. Process improvements result in part from the use of 13.35%N as the source of nitrocellulose and from the use of diethylene glycol monomethyl ether as the shock gel solvent. Gravimetric loading densities of at least 0.95 gm./ml. are achieved through this process.
