Application notes on thermal & polymer characterisation
Learn the methods used to characterise polymers and in thermal analysis in general.
Manual
- Measuring the molecular mass distribution of polymers using Size Exclusion Chromatography (SEC) and MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry.
- Detecting glass transitions in polymers using Dynamic Mechanical Analysis (DMA), on a powder or on a film.
- Calculating the kinetics of a thermal decomposition using thermogravimetric analysis.
- Measuring the enthalpy of fusion and melting point temperature using calorimetry.
- Measuring the amount of volatile matter (e.g. water) in a sample using thermogravimetric analysis.
