Gas analysis in thermal analysis
Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) provides quantitative information about the change in mass of a sample as a function of time or temperature. However, TGA cannot identify or characterize gaseous products that occur during the measurement. By combining mass spectrometry (MS) or Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) with TGA, it is possible to evaluate the properties of gaseous reaction products formed during TGA online.
