THERMAL ANALYSIS
Thermal Analysis Instruments for DSC, TGA, STA & DTA
Thermal analysis instruments for DSC, TGA, STA, DTA, thermal conductivity, carbon black content, and carbon black dispersion testing in research and QC laboratories.
Performance Selection Criteria
Start with DSC when the lab needs glass transition, melting, crystallization, curing, oxidation induction, or specific heat workflows.
Choose standard TGA for moisture, volatile content, thermal stability, ash content, oxidation behavior, and temperature-programmed mass change.
Use top-loading high-precision TGA when the workflow needs 0.001 mg sensitivity, stronger baseline stability, or FTIR/MS expansion.
Use STA when one test must capture heat-flow and mass-change signals under the same atmosphere and temperature program.
