Typical experiments
Thermogravimetry

The thermogravimetric method can be used to characterize a wide range of organic and inorganic materials, ceramics and metals, and the type of measurements involved is extremely varied, as the following non-exhaustive list shows:

• dehydration and dehydroxylation of inorganic and organic raw materials and products;

• pyrolysis and decomposition of polymers, inorganic and organic materials ;

• reaction in different reducing atmospheres (hydrogen, CO...);

• oxidation, combustion ;

• study in corrosive atmospheres ;

• study under humid atmosphere (water vapor) ;

• analysis of emitted gases using spectrometric (MS, FTIR) and chromatographic methods....
