Thermal Analysis

 

Two DSC 2920's which measure thermal transitions in the temperature range of -60°C to 400°C.

 

TGA 2950 which measures weight loss as a function of temperature or time. Temperature range is ambient to 1000°C.

  • DSC Q-100 Series  based on T-Zero technology and is an extremely precise method of measuring heat flow as it allows direct measurement of heat capacity. Temperature range is -90°C to 425°C.
  • TGA Q-500  measures weight loss as a function of temperature or time.  This instrument does not have an autosampler. Temperature range is ambient to 1000°C.
  • SDT Q-600  simultaneous DSC and TGA. Allows the simultaneous measurement of heat flow, transition temperature and weight changes in a material. Temperature range is ambient to 1500°C.
  • Two Perkin Elmer DSC-7's  with a temperature ranges of ambient to 425°C and -60°C to 425°C.
  • Perkin Elmer TGA-7 measures weight loss as a function of temperature or time. Temperature range is ambient to 1000°C.
  • Perkin Elmer TMA-7  measures dimensional and viscoelastic changes in materials as a function of temperature or time (coefficient of thermal expansion, glass transition, softening points, fiber and film studies and modulus measurements). Temperature range is -170°C to 1000°C.
  • Perkin Elmer DMA-7 measures changes in mechanical behavior of a material as a function of temperature, time, frequency, or stress.
