Evolved Gas Analysis
This technique can be split into three main areas.
Thermogravimetric Analysis and Mass Spectrometry
Thermogravimetric Analysis and FTIR
Thermogravimetric Analysis and GC/MS
These techniques are often used when the identity of an evolved species is unknown and information on this species is required
Typical EGA application areas include :
| Polymers and Materials - safety and thermal stability · |
| Polymers - investigation of decomposition mechanisms |
| Pharmaceuticals - residual solvents in drug preparations |
| Packaging - out-gassing and stability |
