Thermal Analysis: TMA
|
The PerkinElmer Diamond Thermomechanical Analyzer (TMA) determines dimensional changes in materials as a function of temperature or time. It is used in research and QC to measure changes in length, width, thickness and linear expansion of materials.
A full complement of TMA sampling accessories facilitate various measurements, including expansion coefficient, glass transition, softening, swelling, gel time, creep, stress-strain, stress-relaxation, and Young’s modulus measurements. With a sample basket, the TMA can also measure large weight loss like a high volume TGA.
Key capabilities
- Wide temperature range (-150 to 1500°C)
- Completely automated furnace movement, instrument calibration, probe positioning and zero sample length measurement
- Sample lengths are automatically measured in the sample cylinder, completely eliminating troublesome micro- meter readings
- A wide variety of accessory probes facilitate many testing modes, such as compression, expansion, penetration and tension
- Additional options enable analysis of bending and volume expansion as well as gel time and temperature
- Upper limit load values can be set prior to experiments, allowing you to correct for bending
