Hi Res TGA: In Hi-Res TGA the heating rate is controlled by the decomposition rate of the sample. The Discovery SDT 650 design is ideal for these measurements with a furnace designed for precise temperature control, and sensitive thermobalances designed to quickly detect small weight changes.

Modulated DSC: In TA Modulated DSC, a sinusoidal temperature oscillation is overlaid on the traditional linear ramp. The net effect of this on a DSC/TGA instrument is that Heat Capacity (Cp) can be measured directly in a single run. TA invented MDSC and understands it like no other company. Modulated DSC is standard on EVERY Discovery SDT model.

Modulated TGA: TA’s patented MTGA™ is another TA Instruments innovation that offers advantages for material decomposition studies. Developed from the proprietary heater control technology utilized by Hi-Res TGA and MDSC, MTGA produces model-free kinetic data. Activation energy can be calculated real-time and studied as a function of time, temperature, and conversion.
