Propylene Glycol Dinitrate (PGDN) Standard
- Main component of Otto Fuel II for torpedoes and other weapons.
- Convenient 1,000µg/mL concentration.
PGDN is very similar to nitroglycerin, but is significantly safer to handle, and can be stored for long periods of time. Nonetheless, the material is an environmental hazard; the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) recommended limit of exposure to airborne PGDN is 0.05ppm over a 40-hour work week. Otto Fuel II is in at least 2 National Priorities List sites identified by the US EPA. PGDN enters the environment primarily in wastewater from naval facilities.
