Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA)
TA Instruments Q5000
Model: TA Instruments Q5000
Description: TGA is an analytical technique used to determine a material’s thermal stability and its fraction of volatile components by monitoring the weight change that occurs as a sample is heated at a constant rate.
Capabilities:
- Weighing Accuracy -0.1%.
- Weighing Precision – 0.01%.
- Sensitivity <0.1 ug.
- Furnace Heating- Infrared.
- Temperature range- Ambient to 1000°C.
Typical uses:
- Measurement of thermal stability of materials including polymers, nanomaterials, membranes, and films.
