TG-FTIR (TGA-FTIR) Thermogravimetric Analysis
Thermogravimetric analysis (TG) follows changes in mass of the sample as a function of temperature yielding information of the various component amounts. Whereby identification of gases released during thermal treatment cannot be performed just by thermal analysis.

Thermogravimetric analysis (TG) follows changes in mass of the sample as a function of temperature yielding information of the various component amounts.
Whereby identification of gases released during thermal treatment cannot be performed just by thermal analysis. Fourier-Transform-Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy overs an excellent solution for the identification of unknown compounds. IR, a classical technique, depends upon the interaction of radiation with the vibrating molecules. With exception of homonuclear diatomics, IR is characteristic for each compound.
TG-FTIR combines the quantitative capabilities of TG and the qualitative identification strength of FTIR spectroscopy.
