Thermal analysis apparatus STA 449 F3 Jupiter
The apparatus allows thermal analysis of solid and powder samples in the range of RT-1500°C in an atmosphere of nitrogen, helium and technical air, along with gas analysis by QMS and FTIR.
Technical parameters:
• real measurement of TG, DTA-TG, DSC-TG
• temperature range RT ÷ 1500 °C (Pt furnace)
• dynamic measurement with the heating speed in the range of 0.01 ÷ 50 K/min
• in quasi-isothermal conditions
• maximum weight: 35 g
• registration of mass changes with an accuracy of 1µg (in the entire range)
• in an inert, oxidizing, reducing atmosphere and in a vacuum, in static or
dynamic mode
