Nitrostarch, also called NS... is actually a mixture of several nitrate esters of starch.... Since this is really a variety of nitrated products the formula is [C6H7(OH) x(ONO2) y]n where x+y=3 and n is any whole number from one on up. The exact composition depends on the reaction conditions during the nitration. Nitrostarch found a use as a filler in hand grenades back in WWII, and also in mining explosives. 3, record 1, English, - nitrostarch
