Thermal analysis is made up of various techniques for studying the thermal behaviour of materials. When a material is heated or cooled its structure and chemical composition undergo changes: fusion, melting, crystallization, oxidation, decomposition, reaction, transition, expansion, sintering. To measure these various transformations the variation in different parameters is followed as a function of the temperature.
We are the recognised service specialist’s for the entire range of Thermal Analysis instruments as previously manufactured by, Stanton Redcroft, PL Thermal Sciences, Polymer Laboratories and Rheometric Scientific, namely:
• Differential Scanning Calorimetry – DSC
• Simultaneous Thermal Analysis – STA
• Differential Thermal Analysis – DTA
• Thermogravimetric Analysis – TGA
• Thermomechanical Analysis – TMA
Since January 1st 2004 Thorn Scientific Services Ltd have been the recognised service partner for SETARAM covering the United Kingdom and Ireland.
