Stabilized, amorphous high energetic compositions having crystallization inhibiting polymers dispersed throughout the solid composition. The compositions disclosed herein are an improvement over crystalline high energetic compositions in that such disclosed compositions are stable and possess physical properties desirable in propellant and high explosive applications.

Described herein is a printing ink or coating composition that includes: (a) one or more elastomeric polyurethane resins with amine functionality having a glass transition temperature of about 45 C. to about 70 C.; (b) one or more acrylic resins based on a methacrylate/styrene co-polymer with a glass transition temperature of about 45 C. to about 110 C.; (c) one or more nitrocellulose binders; (d) one or more solvents; and (e) optionally, one or more waxes and/or one or more colorants. The inks and coating compositions are well suited for printing onto shrink sleeve label substrates, such as by flexographic and gravure printing. The inks and coatings provide exceptional printability and resistance to chemicals, to softening, to re-wetting, and to set-off.

Disclosed is a ringing sealant defined by the addition of ethyl centralite to a solution of cellulose nitrate dissolved in acetone. Suitably, the preferred embodiment of the ringing sealant for microscope slides features a degree of elasticity sufficient to prevent that mixture from cracking a cover glass as the mixture dries or when dried.

The present invention provides an improved method of quantitative and/or qualitative analysis of a target molecule using nitrocellulose membrane (NCM). In particular, the present invention provides a porous nitrocellulose membrane that includes a surface and an organic nanostructured molecule that is non-covalently attached to the surface of NCM. The organic nanostructured molecule has a branched region that includes a plurality of terminal region (e.g., terminal end) moieties that are non-covalently attached or bound to a surface of the porous NCM. The organic nanostructured molecule also comprises a linear region that includes a covalently attached capture molecule that is adapted to selectively bind to a target molecule. The NCM of the invention provides an improved reproducibility, reliability, and selectivity compared an NCM in the absence of the organic nanostructured molecule.

Provided is a nitrocellulose with incorporated binders, the binders being plasticisers or resins, in the form of granules (NPG/NRG), optionally with addition of pigments (NPPG), with diameters of between 0.4 and 2.0 mm, which has a uniform particle size and low water content, for use in ink, varnish and sealant compositions, for the fields of: nail varnishes, automotive respraying, graphic printing on flexible films, such as flexography, rotogravure and laminating (such as, for example, BOPP, metallized BOPP, PE, PET, inter alia), wood surfaces, paper, glass, plastics, leather, metalworking, textiles, amongst other uses.

Nitrocellulose is plasticized with epoxidized fatty acid esters, such as epoxidized alkyl soyates. Nail varnish can be made from the plasticized nitrocellulose.
