TA Instruments TGA Q50/ DSC Q2000
Differential Scanning Calorimeters (DSC) is a powerful analytical tool for the identification of various physical properties and thermal transitions of polymeric materials. It measures the energy transferred to or from a sample undergoing a physical or chemical change. Common usage includes investigation, selection, comparison, and end-use performance evaluation of materials in research, quality control and production applications.
TGA is a powerful technique for the measurement of thermal stability of materials including polymers. In this method, changes in the weight of a specimen are measured while its temperature is being increased. Moisture and volatile contents of a sample can be measured by TGA. Thermogravimetric data is critical to setting proper temperature limits for Differential Scanning Calorimetry method development.
Services
Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) are two of the most widely used thermal analysis techniques in the characterization of crystalline and amorphous of materials.
