Thermal Analysis
|
| Thermal analysis is a broad classification for a group of instrumental techniques that measure various physical properties while subjecting the sample to a controlled temperature and time program. At TechDirect, our five different instrumental capabilities can be used to elucidate specific information, and often several thermal or other analytical techniques are used in conjunction with each other to produce supporting data. |

Applications and Analysis
|
- Glass transitions, polymer miscibility
- Crystallization and Melting
- Cure kinetics, heat of reaction, heat capacity
- Thermal stability, decomposition weight loss, moisture, volatiles, ash content
- Coefficient of thermal expansion, softening point
- Flex storage and loss modulus, creep, stress relaxation
