1、Designation: E1582 14Standard Practice forCalibration of Temperature Scale for Thermogravimetry1This standard is issued under the fixed designation E1582; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision.

Scope1.1 This practice describe the temperature calibration ofthermogravimetric analyzers over the temperature range from25 to 1500C and is app

3、licable to commercial and custom-builtapparatus. This calibration may be accomplished by the use ofeither melting point standards or magnetic transition standards.1.2 The mass change curve in thermogravimetry resultsfrom a number of influences, some of which are characteristicof the specimen holder

The variations from instrument to instrumentoccur in the point of measurement of the temperature, thenature of the material, its size and packing, the geometry andcomposition of the specimen container, the geometry anddesign of the furnace, and the ac

In addition, some sample holder assemblies will showvariations of measured temperature with sample size orheating/cooling rate, or both. Since it i

Thisdeviation can be applied as a correction t

7、erm to subsequentmeasurements.1.3 This practice assumes that the indicated temperature ofthe instrument is linear over the range defined by a two-pointcalibration and that this linearity has been verified. These twocalibration temperatures should be as close to the experimentalmeasurements to be mad

8、e as possible.1.4 This practice describes two procedures for temperaturecalibration of thermogravimetric analyzers using any typebalance. Procedure A uses melting point standards for calibra-tion. Procedure B uses magnetic transition standards forcalibration.NOTE 1Since all electronic data treatment

9、s are not equivalent, the usershall verify equivalency prior to use.1.5 The data generated by these procedures can be used tocorrect the temperature scale of the instrument by either apositive or negative amount using either a two-point tempera-ture calibration procedure or a multi-point temperature

10、 calibra-tion with best line fit for the generated data.NOTE 2A single-point calibration may be used where this is the onlyprocedure possible or practical. The use of a single-point procedure is notrecommended.1.6 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard. No other units of measure

This tempera-ture most closely represents the Curie Point, that point on themass change curve where the magnetic effect of the standardmaterial has disappeared completely (see Fig. 1).3.1.1.

19、1 DiscussionThe position of the magnet and thedesign of the instrument will affect the direction of the masschange.4. Summary of Practice4.1 This practice provides a set of different procedures sincethermogravimetric apparatus is often of significantly differingdesign.4.2 Calibration of Analyzers Us

20、ing Magnetic TransitionStandards:4.2.1 In this procedure, the apparent mass change of one ormore of the magnetic transition standards is obtained under thenormal operating conditions of the instrument. The extrapo-lated endpoint temperature (see Fig. 2) is determined andcompared with the established

21、 transition temperature for thematerial. The difference provides an adjustment or calibrationthat may be applied to the temperature scale of the instrument.4.2.2 The apparent mass change of the magnetic transitionmaterials is caused by the magnetic to nonmagnetic transitionin the presence of a magne

Significance and Use5.1 Thermog

23、ravimetric analyzers are used to characterize abroad range of materials. In most cases, one of the desiredvalues to be assigned in thermogravimetric measurements isthe temperature at which significant changes in specimen massoccur. Therefore, the temperature axis (abscissa) of allapparent-mass-chang

24、e curves must be calibrated accurately,either by direct reading of a temperature sensor, or by adjustingthe programmer temperature to match the actual temperatureover the temperature range of interest. In the latter case, this isaccomplished by the use of either melting point or magnetictransition s

Interferences6.1 The reference metals are sensitive to impurities and mayoxidize at elevated temperatures.All runs shall be conducted inan oxygen-free inert purge gas

26、 of the same type to be used inthe experimental procedures.6.2 Care must be taken to stay below temperatures at whichthe magnetic transition standard will react with the specimen orits holder.6.3 The atmosphere, purge gas type, purge gas flow rate,and heating will affect the calibration. These rates

27、 and condi-tions must be the same for both calibration and analysis. Inaddition, high heating rates should be avoided, if possible. Dueto the differing heat exchange (emissivity and heat capacity)during the calibration and analysis, higher heating rates in-crease the error in the temperature measure

28、ment. The ICTACSixth International Test Program (1)4warns that heating ratesabove 6C/min can produce errors in the temperature calibra-tion.7.
