A number of other gases can undergo reactions that produce decomposition flames—for instance, ethylene, ethylene oxide, methyl nitrate, ethyl nitrate, and hydrazine (CCPS 1993).

Inasmuch as methyl nitrate is very sensitive to mechanical action, it was found much safer to use it in methanol soln. Such solns, called Myrol, may be obtained directly in the methyl nitrate manufg process, since all that is necessary is to use an excess of methanol. One of the most suitable solns proved to be an azeotropic mixt consisting of about 75% methyl nitrate and 25% methanol. This mixt has a bp of 57.5°. Myrols contg at least 25% methanol will not evaporate to leave 100% methyl nitrate...

Myrol Explosives. Methyl nitrate (qv) and its mixts with methanol, benz, NB, etc found extensive application by Ger in WWII as ingredients of numerous liq, plastic and solid propints and expls. Some of these mixts were known as Ersatzsprengatoffe (substitute expls)... 

In the case of liq expls and propints, Myrol (methyl nitrate plus methanol) was used either by itself or in mixts with liqs such as benz, MNB, etc. For use as a plastic expl or propint, Myrol was treated with small quantities of NC to form a soft jelly. As a solid expl or propint, it was treated with 25-30% NC to form a hard jelly, or was mixed with the usual sol ingredients of dynamites, sUch as kieselguhr, sawdust, inorganic nitrates, lignin, etc...

It is interesting to mention here that Dewar and Storch (1989) drew attention to the fact that ion-molecule reactions often lack a transition state barrier in theoretical calculations related to the gas phase, but are known to proceed with measurable activation energy in solution. Szabo et al. (1992) made separate calculations at the ab initio Hartree-Fock 3/21 G level for the geometry of the nitration of benzene with the protonated methyl nitrate by two mechanisms, not involving solvent molecules. Both calculations yielded values for the energy barriers.
