Validation and uncertainty estimation for conformity declaration of a method to assess the stability of nitrocellulose-based propellants

The scope of the present study was to develop and validate a rapid and precise method for the evaluation the stability and the chemical life of nitrocellulose-based propellants which contain as stabilizers diphenylamine, N-nitrosodiphenylamine, 2-nitrodiphenylamine, 4-nitrodiphenylamine and ethyl ce...
