Bergmann-Junk Test
Quantitative determination of the thermal stability of nitrocellulose and propellants at 120 °C or 132 °C according to STANAG 4178 5C.
Description
Device for determining the thermal stability of nitrocellulose and other nitro compounds, as well as single- and double-base propellants according to the Bergmann-Junk test at 120 or 132 °C (STANAG 4178 5C).
The Bergmann-Junk test is based on the quantitative determination of the nitrogen oxides produced during the thermal decomposition of the sample.
