Application:

Thermogravimetric analysis allows the monitoring of the changes of the sample mass as the temperature increases. The sample is heated in a pan, so that the temperature evenly increases at the given rate, while the mass changes are recorded on the scale.


Technical characteristics:

  • Temperature range: 50 – 950°C
  • Max. sample mass: 5-10 mg
  • Sample pans: platinum or ceramic
  • Sample atmosphere: nitrogen, air, oxygen
