Description

With a combined Thermographic Analysis (TGA) and Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) the mass effect on a sample is determined that is subjected to a temperature program. Example: mass loss by decomposition or loss of volatile components. At the same time, heat effects can be registered with a simple DSC sensor.

Technical details

Temperature range 25-1600 °C, maximum heating speed 100 °C/min, sample robot with a tray for 34 sample holders

Additional techniques

Can be linked to FTIR and MS or to RH control

Applications

Thermogravimetry produces quantitative information about the composition and thermal stability of a wide range of materials. The method is fast and can be used with very small sample sizes (1 mg).
