At ResolveMass Laboratories Inc., our Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA) Service delivers precise data on the thermal stability, composition, and degradation behavior of materials. Using high-precision thermobalances, our experts monitor mass changes as a function of temperature or time, providing critical insights for polymers, composites, pharmaceuticals, and advanced materials. Each test is performed under rigorously controlled atmospheric conditions to ensure reliable, reproducible, and traceable results.
What Is Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA)?
Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA) is a thermal characterization technique that measures the change in a material’s mass as it is heated, cooled, or held isothermally. It helps determine properties such as thermal stability, composition, oxidative resistance, and decomposition kinetics. At ResolveMass Laboratories, we employ advanced TGA systems capable of operating under various atmospheres (nitrogen, air, or inert gas) and temperature ranges exceeding 1000°C.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA) measures the change in a material’s mass as it is heated or cooled under controlled conditions. It helps identify processes such as decomposition, oxidation, and evaporation. The results reveal vital information about a material’s thermal stability, composition, and overall behavior when exposed to heat.
TGA focuses on changes in mass, while Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) measures changes in energy or heat flow. TGA determines when a material loses weight due to thermal events, and DSC identifies when those events absorb or release heat. Together, they give a complete understanding of a material’s thermal properties.
TGA can be performed on a wide range of materials including polymers, pharmaceuticals, composites, ceramics, food samples, and inorganic compounds. Any substance that exhibits weight changes with temperature can be tested, making TGA useful across multiple industries such as manufacturing, research, and material development.
Only a small quantity—typically between 5 and 20 milligrams—is needed for accurate Thermogravimetric Analysis. This allows for precise temperature control and rapid thermal response. The small sample size also ensures consistent heating and reliable data even for highly reactive or delicate materials.
TGA can be conducted under nitrogen, air, oxygen, or custom gas atmospheres depending on the study objective. Each environment helps simulate different conditions—oxidative testing for stability studies or inert atmospheres to prevent unwanted reactions during thermal decomposition.
Yes. TGA is a powerful tool for determining material composition, filler content, and purity levels. By studying weight loss patterns, scientists can quantify the proportion of organic and inorganic components. This information is particularly valuable in polymer formulation and pharmaceutical quality control.
