Complete Specification for the invention entitled: Glycidal Azide Polymer Azide The following sta:ement is a full description of this invention, including the besc method of pe-forming it known to me/us 5845/5 87R050 GLYCIDYL AZIDE POLYMER AZIOE Milton B. Frankel Michael A. Cunningham Edgar R. Wilson Background of the Invention 1. Field of the Invention This invention relates to a composition of matter, and is particularly directed to an energetic azide terminated glycidyl azide 0 polymer and a method for producing this compound.
S2. Description of the Prior Art Solid propellants are generally formulated to include an oxidizer and fuel together with suitable binders and plasticizers to enhance the S physical and chemical characteristics of-the propellants. Most propellant systems utilize binders and plasticizers containing energetic groups such as nitro (-NO 2 fluorodinitro (FC(NO 2 2 difluoroamino (-NF 2 and others.
These azido plasticizers impart additional energy to propellant systems since each azido group present provides approximately 85 kcal/mole of energy to the system.
One functionally terminated azido polymer is taught by Wilson et al No. 177 1V&c.
in U. S. Patent-iii N .f Another energetic azido polymer is described in U. S. Patent 4,268,450, i ncorporated herein by reference. In contrast to the present invention, Sboth f the aforementioned polymers nd the method of making same, may be both of the aforementioned polymers and the method of making same, may be 87R050 -2distinguished in part by the initiator groups and the repeating units present in the starting materials and final products. Applicants' invention provides a one-step synthesis in high yield of a glycidyl azide polymer azide which fulfills the needs of many propellant systems and is particularly useful as an energetic plasticizer for propellants and explosives.
Summary of the Invention Accordingly there is provided by the present invention an energetic polymer comprising an azide-terminated aliphatic polymer.
Objects of the Invention Therefore it is an object of the present invention to provide a composition of matter useful in formulating solid propellants, explosives, and the like.
Another object of the present invention is to provide an energetic azide-terminated azido plasticizer.
Yet another object of the present invention is to provide a single step process for producing the azide-terminated azido plasticizer.

EXAMPLE
In a suitable reaction vessel, 2,750 ml of dimethylsulfoxide was S heated under a nitrogen purge to 70 0 C. To this was added over a 15 minute per id 2,090 grams (32.15 moles) of sodium azide. This mixture was then heat. to 95*C and 2,511.2 grams (26.79 moles) of a-(2-chloroethyl)--benzenesulfonyl polyepichlorohydrin was added over four hours., No additional heat was required during the addition to maintain the temperature at from about 95 to about 1000C.
*6 After the addition was complete, the reaction mixture was heated an additional 12 hours at a temperature of from about 95 to about 100 0 C. The reaction mixture was then quenched with 6.5 liters of water. The resulting organic phase was separated, washed four times with ten liters of hot water, diluted to 20% solution in methylene chloride, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, and passed through a column of 2,000 grams of i ?9%7050 silica gel. Concentration of the solution gave 1,896.5 grams of the glycidyl polymer azide, the properties of which are set forth in Table 1 above.
It should be noted that the precise amounts, temperatures, times, solutions, means of addition, drowning procedures, number of washes, extraction and stripping procedures which were used or may be used may all be varied to meet specific requirements and specific reactions. These parameters delineated herein are merely representative.
Obviously, many modifications and variations of the present invention are possible in light of the above teachings. It is therefore to be understood that, within the scope of the appended claims, the invention may be practiced otherwise than as specifically described.
