Polymers and Composites. Introduction: The Thermogravimetric Analyzer (TGA) is a very important advanced instrument used for material characterization. TGA is used for materials testing/plastic testing/ rubber testing / polymer testing needed in various environmental, food, pharmaceutical, and petrochemical and polymer/plastic / rubber / composite applications. Thermogravimetric Gravimetric Analysis (TGA) can help us in determining the moisture content/Volatiles, inorganic, organic components, additives, decomposition points and degradation temperatures. In TGA analysis of plastics/rubber/polymer/any material, mass loss with respect to the temperature is measured with an advance inbuilt thermobalance which can go as high as up to 1100C. analysis or Thermal Working/Principle: Thermogravimetric Analysis / TGA Analysis is a technique wherein the mass loss of a material is measured as a function of temperature or time. During TGA testing the sample specimen is subjected to a controlled temperature program in a controlled atmosphere either in Nitrogen or Oxygen or Air. A TGA mainly comprises of a sample pan that is held on by an ultra precision thermo balance. That pan is surrounded in a furnace and is heated or cooled during the experiment. The mass of the sample is measured during the testing. A sample purge gas controls the sample environment. This gas may be inert or a reactive gas that flows over the sample and exits through an exhaust. During TGA testing of Plastics/rubber/polymer/composites, Chemical reactions, such as combustion, involve mass losses, whereas physical changes, such as melting, do not. The sample mass loss is plotted against temperature or time axis to present the thermal
