Simultaneous Thermal Analyzer (STA)

Thermogravimetric Analyzer TGA + Differential Scanning Calorimeter DSC

The simultaneous measurement of the weight change (thermogravimetry) and the energy conversion (differential scanning calorimetry) on a single sample (Simultaneous Thermal Analysis – STA) provides a large gain in information compared to an application in two different devices.

This means that the same test conditions apply at all times for the TGA and DTA/DSC signals (atmosphere, heating rate, thermal contact, radiation, etc.).

Typical applications are the differentiation between phase transformations and decomposition, pyrolysis, oxidation, combustion, etc.

The LINSEIS STA series (Simultaneous Thermal Analysis) models are used to simultaneously measure the changes in mass (TG) and the caloric reactions (DSC) of a sample in a temperature range from -150°C up to 2400°C. The STA Platinum series was developed to meet these requirements at both high and low temperatures. A range of sophisticated furnace types and a large selection of sample holders and crucibles are available.You can also order various accessories such as gas mixing systems, gas analyzers and gas safety system as well as our extensive range of software to use.
