- Name: Simultaneous thermal analyzer (STA)
- Tool No.: MNCF 034
- Make : PerkinElmer- STA8000
Simultaneous thermal analyzer measures both heat flow (Differential Scanning Calorimetry) and weight changes (thermogravimetry) in a material as a function of temperature or time in a controlled atmosphere. The instrument can preciously correlate enthalpy changes to the TGA events resulting from mass loss.
Samples are heated in open alumina crucibles where TGA, DTA and DSC data are acquired. temperature or time in a controlled atmosphere.
