Thermogravimetric analyzers measure changes in mass or weight in response to increases in temperature or time. These kinds of measurements can give valuable information about a material's thermal stability, response to oxidation, composition, decomposition kinetics, moisture content, and more. Thermogravimetric analyzers thus have applications for many types of studies such as materials science research, studies of reaction kinetics, and determining the durability of materials used to make space craft.
Some things to consider when purchasing a thermogravimetric analyzer include the type of samples the machine is optimized for, sample weight, temperature range, ease of calibration, and analysis and cool down times.

Description | Moisture, Ash, Volatile Content, and Loss-on-Ignition
The TGA801 is the latest generation of automated macro thermogravimetric analyzers to enter our lineup. The TGA801 maintains the core capabilities and reliability of previous generations of LECO macro TGA instruments, while providing key Moisture, Ash, Volatile Content, and Loss-on-Ignition
The TGA801 is the latest generation of automated macro thermogravimetric analyzers to enter our lineup. The TGA801 maintains the core capabilities and reliability of previous generations of LECO macro TGA instruments, while providing key improvements in performance and robustness. By incorporating state-of-the-art hardware with an on-board touch-screen software platform and a rugged design, the TGA801 provides accurate, high-precision thermogravimetric constituent analysis—moisture, ash, volatile content, and LOI in various organic, inorganic, and synthetic materials. Complying with ASTM standardized methods, the TGA801 is applicable to many industries and applications including coal, cement, catalyst, foods, and feeds.
Macro thermogravimetric analysis replaces the often slow, labor-intensive, traditional manual gravimetric techniques that require multiple sample weighing and transfer steps involving ovens, muffle furnaces, and desiccator equipment. The flexible method settings, automation, and hardware capabilities of the TGA801 deliver an automated analysis process while requiring only the manual measurement of the initial sample mass, saving you time in your lab.
Cornerstone Mobile remote software keeps the user updated from their smartphone, tablet, or PC on the instrument's analysis batch progress, performance, and status while away from the instrument.
