Abstract

Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) involves the measurement of the changes in mass that occur when a constant heat is applied to an unknown specimen as a function of time or temperature. It is used to evaluate thermal stability, oxidative stability, composition, and estimated lifetime, among other parameters. Given that accurate TGA data is important information for lifetime and stability evaluation of parts and products, an uncertainty evaluation procedure is required to ensure the reliability of the data. In this study, the uncertainty evaluation procedure was established according to the Guide to the Expression of Uncertainty in Measurement (GUM). The mathematically expression of the relationship between the measurand and the input quantities, evaluation of the standard uncertainty of each input estimate, determination of the combined standard uncertainty, and calculation of the expanded uncertainty were performed. The biggest factor affecting the uncertainty of TGA data is the uncertainty of correction factor caused by system calibration
