TGA (thermogravimetric analysis)
Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) is a technique used to measure how a material's weight changes as it is heated or cooled. By carefully monitoring weight loss or gain, TGA helps identify the composition, stability, and thermal properties of substances. For example, it can determine how much of a material is combustible or how it decomposes at different temperatures. This information is valuable in industries like materials science, pharmaceuticals, and chemistry to analyze quality, purity, and behavior under temperature variations.
