Thermal Properties

Complete Instrument List
Contact: Ron Wasco	Analysis and Instrument Description		Example Analyses
	Perkin Elmer TGA 7 High Temperature Atmospheric TGA	Thermogravimetric analysis is used to monitor weight change over a given temperature profile in select gaseous atmospheres up to 1550 degrees Celsius.
	Cahn TG151 High Pressure TGA	The Cahn TG151 is used to monitor weight change over a given temperature profile in select gaseous atmospheres and 1500 PSI of pressure.
	Micromeretics Autochem 2910 Automated Catalyst Characterization	This instrument is capable of performing many different types of analyses relevant to catalyst characteristics, e.g., surface area and site activity.
	Mettler Toledo TG50 Atmospheric TGA	Thermogravimetric analysis is used to monitor weight change over a given temperature profile in select gaseous atmospheres.
	Mettler Toledo DSC27HP High Pressure Differential Scanning Calorimeter	Differential Scanning Calorimetry is used to detect thermal transitions in a sample relative to a reference, e.g., glass transitions and melting point measurements.
	Parr Adiabatic Calorimeter	The Parr Adiabatic Calorimeter is used to measure the gross calorific value of solid and liquid samples in a high pressure oxygen chamber.
