If the application is pyrotechnical, especially rocket propellant, energetic plasticizers are preferred. Nitroglycerin is probably the most widely used and effective energetic plasticizer for nitrocellulose. Nitroglycerin plasticized nitrocellulose is, in fact, the well-known "double base" smokeless powder. The commercial "Bullseye" pistol powder is 40% nitroglycerin. There are other energetic plasticizers, having equivalent specific energy to nitroglycerin, but safer to handle and store. These include diethylene glycol dinitrate (DEGDN), butanetriol trinitrate (BTTN), and trimethylolethane trinitrate (TMETN, in mixtures with DEGDN). If the application is application/engineering plastic, a very well-established plasticizer is camphor. The mixture of camphor and nitrocellulose is the well-known plastic "celluloid". As with energetic plasticizers, there are other inert plasticizers for nitrocellulose besides camphor. Phthalate esters are prominent in this group.

How do you get nitrocellulose?
You can get nitrocellulose from playing cards and films if broken apart.

What is the charge on nitrocellulose membrane?
positive
What has the author Fritz Zimmer written?

What is the difference between nylon membrane and nitrocellulose membrane?
Nylon membranes are less brittle and easier to handle than nitrocellulose, making them ideal for reprobing. They also respond more robustly to various environmental storage conditions than nitrocellulose. Nylon's highly hydrophilic nature makes prewetting unnecessary, and nylon membranes have much higher binding capacities than nitrocellulose for nucleic acids.
Is nitrocellulose the ingredient in ruby kisses nail polish that makes it dry faster?
Nitrocellulose is the basis for nail polish--it's what's left behind on your nails after it dries.
What is plastic cement?
It is cement where a polymer such as SBR latex or PVA emulsion or other polymer is added to plasticize and make the cement more flexible.
Is gun powder a compound or mixture?
Many people confuse gunpowder and black powder. Both of them are mixtures, although gunpowder, also known as smokeless powder, was 100% nitrocellulose, a compound, when it was first used in the mid 1800's. Black powder is a very intimate mixture of potassium nitrate, sulfur and charcoal. Smokeless powders today get their energy when burned from 100% nitrocellulose to mostly nitroglycerine. Most smokeless powders obtain their energy from a mixture of nitrocellulose and nitroglycerine. However, even smokeless powders made today with pure nitrocellulose are still a mixture because manufacturers add other compounds to the powder to reduce the muzzle flash, stabilize the burning rate, slow the decomposition of the powder and to neutralize any corrosive acids formed from the powder's decomposition.
