3031 may have a similar burn rate to cordite. That would be about the only similarity I believe. 3031 is a single base Nitro Cellulose powder while Cordite was a double base powder with a very high Nitro Glycerin content. I have never used Cordite, but it had a reputation of being quite errosive due to the high burn temps from the Nitro-Glycerin.
