Thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA, TG) is a function of temperature or time in the process of heating, constant temperature or cooling. Widely used in plastics, rubber, coatings, pharmaceuticals, catalysts, inorganic materials, metal materials and composite materials and other fields of research and development, process optimization and quality control.

The following properties of the material are measured and studied:

thermal stability

Adsorption and desorption

Quantitative analysis of components

Moisture and volatile matter

decomposition process

oxidization and reduction

Effect of additives and fillers

reaction kinetics
