About this file
This is a Minimum Requirements Document for a commercial procurement of BDNPA/F plasticizer by the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL/RABE) at Eglin Air Force Base, Florida.
AFRL/RABE requires 10 pounds of Bis-(2,2-dinitropropyl) acetal/formal (BDNPA/F) plasticizer stabilized with DPA for use in energetic material formulation development. The material must be a 50/50 weight percent eutectic mixture of BDNPA and BDNPF with a hazard classification of 1.3C and must be shipped to the Eglin AFB Munitions Area in strict accordance with Technical Data Control No. 26-01. The procurement is justified as a Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) acquisition under DAFMAN 21-201, paragraph 10.7, because no National Stock Number exists and the Air Force has no single item manager for this material. The price shall include both the BDNPA/F material cost and shipping. No response dates, award dates, or pricing terms are specified in this minimum requirements document, which serves as the foundational specification for the solicitation to follow.

Minimum Requirements Document
Title: BDNPA/F Plasticizer
Document Date: 8 June 2026
Scope: AFRL/RABE requires ten (10) lbs. of BDNPA/F plasticizer (DPA stabilizer) for use in Energetic
Material formulation development. This shall include the cost of the BDNPA/F material and shipping it to
Eglin AFB, FL. The material shall be shipped to the Eglin AFB Munitions Area in strict accordance with the Technical Data for Bis-(2,2-dinitropropyl) acetal/formal (BDNPA/F) Explosive Plasticizer, Control No.
26-01.
Background: AFRL/RABE requires ten (10) pounds of BDNPA/F plasticizer for use in a research and development program. BDNPA/F is an energetic plasticizer (hazard classified as a 1.3C liquid propellant) capable of adding energy to explosive and propellant compositions relative to traditional inert plasticizers.
This material will be used solely for explosive formulation development. Because no National Stock
Number (NSN) exists and the Air Force does not have a single item manager for this material, commercial procurement is justified. AFRL/RABE has been approved to purchase this material in accordance with
DAFMAN 21-201, paragraph 10.7, Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) Munitions Management.
Requirements/Salient Characteristics: The BDNPA/F material will have the following characteristics:
Noun: Bis-(2,2-dinitropropyl) acetal/formal (BDNPA/F) stabilized with DPA
NSN: None – Commercial-Off-The-Shelf
Part Number: Not applicable
Hazard Classification: 1.3C
Quantity: 10 pounds
Composition: 50/50 wt% eutectic mixture of BDNPA and BDNPF
