Thermal gravimetric analyzer

[MGT]'s high-performance Thermal Gravimetric Analyzer (TGA) provides unparalleled accuracy and sensitivity in measuring the mass change of a sample as a function of temperature (under precisely controlled heating programs) or time (isothermally). This critical data enables the determination of key material properties, including:

• Thermal Stability & Decomposition: Identify decomposition onset temperatures, reaction kinetics, and thermal stability limits.
• Compositional Analysis: Quantify components such as volatiles (moisture, solvents), polymers, fillers (e.g., carbon black, minerals), inorganic residues, and ash content.
• Oxidation & Corrosion Behavior: Study oxidative stability, oxidation induction times (OIT), and corrosion processes.
• Sorption/Desorption: Analyze moisture uptake, drying behavior, and desorption kinetics.

Designed for Excellence:

• Ultra-Microbalance: Features a high-sensitivity, robust microbalance for precise mass measurements (<0.1 µg typical resolution).
• Wide Temperature Range: Operates from ambient to [Specify Max Temp, e.g., 1000°C, 1200°C, 1500°C, 1600°C] under controlled atmospheres (inert, oxidizing, reducing, corrosive).
• Precise Atmosphere Control: Integrated mass flow controllers ensure accurate gas environment management (purge, protective, reactive).
• Advanced Software: Intuitive software provides comprehensive instrument control, sophisticated data acquisition, powerful analysis tools (derivative TGA - DTG, multi-step evaluations), and customizable reporting compliant with international standards (ISO, ASTM).
• Robust Design: Engineered for reliability and low maintenance in demanding laboratory environments.
• Versatile Sample Handling: Accommodates a wide range of sample types and sizes.
