Thermogravimetric Analyser (TGA):

Thermogravimetric analysis or thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) is a method of thermal analysis in which the mass of a sample is measured over time as the temperature changes. TGA is 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.

Applications:

• Thermal stability
• Oxidation and combustion
• Thermogravimetric kinetics
