Glycerol Nitrolactate Dinitrate
This compound is prepared by reacting glycerol nitrophenyl ether with
a nitric acid – sulfuric acid mixture at 25 – 30 °C (~77 °F). It is insoluble
in water, but is readily soluble in acetone. It is a poor gelatinizer of
nitrocellulose.

Dinitroglycerol nitrolactate is practically insoluble in water, readily soluble
in alcohol and ether, and is a good gelatinizer of nitrocellulose. It is
more resistant to heat and less sensitive to impact than nitroglycerine.
