   these three formulas are listed as the varying constituencies of nitrocellulose:
   
   C₆H₉(NO₂)O₅
   C₆H₈(NO₂)₂O₅
   C₆H₇(NO₂)₃O₅
   
   out of curiosity, do the properties of the resultant compound vary heavily between them?

   looks like varying oxidiser ratios, would likely affect how completely and how fast it'd burn

   The more you nitrate it the harder it goes boom. Cellulose trinitrate has the most oxidizing potential.
   
   C₆H₇(NO₂)₃O₅
