PerkinElmer TG-IR

TG-IR: Thermogravimetric – Infrared Analysis

Because of its ability to detect functional groups in gas-phase, IR analysis allows greater understanding of the processes seen in the TGA. A sample is heated in the TGA, whereby, it decomposes and releases volatile materials and/or gaseous components as a result of material break-down. These gases Thermogravimetric properties are recorded and are then transferred to the IR cell via a high-fidelity transfer system where the components can be further characterized/identified.

• State-of-the-art - ensure transfer of every component evolved in the TGA to the IR while maintaining complete sample integrity
• Performance - Heated zero-gravity-effect 'ZGCell' gas cell for the PerkinElmer FT-IR instrument incorporating automatic accessory identification, low volume, and efficient sample area purging
• Flexibility - Switch from TG-IR mode to TGA and/or IR only mode quickly and easily
