TMA measures thermal expansion and effects such as softening, crystallization and solid-solid transitions, which provide insight into the composition of materials and hence their possible applications.
This how-to video describes the calibration procedure for a Thermomechanical Analyzer (TMA) – preparation of standards, experiment setup and automatic evaluations.
Key areas covered include:
- Stabilization of force and temperature
- Force adjustment using a reference weight
- Displacement calibration using gauge blocks
- Temperature calibration using displacement change
- Automatic evaluation and assessment
