Thermogravimetric analysis combined with gas chromatography and mass spectrometry (TGA-GC/MS) is nowadays the method of choice for qualitative and quantitative evolved gas analysis (EGA). This combination of methods allows thermal effects to be correlated with information about the molecular nature, structure and composition of materials.
Features and benefits of the METTLER TOLEDO TGA-IST16-GC/MS 1:
- Gas analysis by GC/MS – Determination of the molecular composition and information about the molecular structure of the sample
- IST16 interface with 16 storage loops – allows a single TGA measurement to be divided into up to 16 separate GC/MS experiments
- Independent TGA and GC/MS experiments – GC/MS analysis does not require the TGA measurement to be stopped and so saves time
- Automatic operation – straightforward and efficient
- Different modes – selection of the best mode of operation (storage mode or continuous mode)
- Direct coupling of the TGA to the GC/MS – cost-effective solution for a single GC/MS analysis
