ts on the market or better and higher performance. The nitrating process produces nitrocellulose, often referred to as gun cotton. Malaysia continues to import gunpowder from other nations for its military weapons sector. This situation has a strategic impact on our defence strategy. Malaysia’s ability to survive in the face of a long-term crisis is not at its best. Due to supply blockades imposed by adversaries and prospective friends, Malaysia risks running out of munitions. However, Malaysia has a wealth of resources that can exploit as a lifeline for the country’s protection. Many agricultural wastes, trees, and other fibres can process pulp, bleach, and nitrated to produce nitrocellulose in Malaysia. Propellant grade nitrocellulose is using this method. This book explained how nitrocellulose derived from Palm Oil Empty Fruit Bunches (EFB), Kenaf Bast, and Rhizophora Apiculata. It affects in terms of kinetic energy and calorific value measured using small arms bullets. The nitrocellulose manufactured by local facilities compares to Ball M193 gunpowder. The authors hope to pique readers’ enthusiasm in nitrocellulose, which is manufactured from abundant organic fibre supplies and has an excellent prospective for usage as a propellant in munitions and explosives. It presents a significant potential for Malaysia’s defence sector to discover new sources for the weapon’s most critical component, the propellant.
