A comprehensive TGA platform to address your most complex thermal challenges

FILAB, an independant laboratory, supports industrial clients with thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) to characterize the thermal behavior, stability and composition of materials, particularly polymers.

Our teams provide advanced analytical capabilities, including coupled TGA techniques, for an in-depth understanding of thermal phenomena and degradation mechanisms.

Your end-to-end TGA analytical solution:

  • Thermal behavior studies
  • Thermal stability assessment
  • Polymer composition characterization
  • Determination of residue content (fillers, ash, additives)
  • Mass loss and degradation mechanism studies
  • Vapor pressure and saturated vapor measurements
  • Comparative studies (formulations, batches, aging)
  • Kinetic determination according to ASTM E1641 standard
  • Custom analytical services and expert support
  • TGA technical training

Coupled TGA techniques to enhance thermal analysis

  • Conventional TGA
  • TGA-DSC: correlation between mass loss and thermal events
  • TGA-FTIR: identification of gases released during degradation
  • TGA-GCMS: analysis of emitted volatile species
Understand the thermal behavior of your materials, anticipate their stability and secure your industrial decisions.
