Thermal analyzers are used to measure mechanical properties as a function of temperature or time. Numerous types of thermal analyzers are available such as simultaneous thermal analyzers, dynamic mechanical analyzers, thermogravimetric analyzers, thermomechanical analyzers, and many more. For a high throughput lab with a need for both thermogravimetric and calorimetric data, consider a simultaneous thermal analyzer as this can provide simultaneous data for both measurements under the same testing conditions. Many materials testing laboratories opt for dynamic mechanical analyzers for their ability to accurately analyze the mechanical and viscoelastic properties of various materials including polymers, thermoplastics, and metals. When comparing thermal analysis equipment some key considerations to keep in mind could be temperature precision, accuracy, and many other application-specific specifications. Thermal analyzers have a wide range of applications in materials testing, pharmaceutical testing, food testing, and many other applications.
