A thermomechanical analyzer is a technology designed to gauge a material's deformation concerning temperature and time under controlled temperature conditions and non-vibrational loads. It primarily assesses parameters like the expansion coefficient and phase transition temperature of materials. This versatile tool finds extensive application across various industries, including plastics, rubber, films, fibers, coatings, ceramics, glass, metal materials, and composite materials.
USB or serial communication interface for easy connection to laptops.
In the experiment, the user sets the heating rate and the software PID controls the linear heating.
Calibrate various indicators of the instrument with standard samples.
The measurement process is automatically completed, automatically plotted, and can also be manually corrected. The computer automatically calculates the glass transition temperature, phase transition, softening temperature, etc.
Temperature range | room temperature~950 ℃. |
Heating rate | 0.1 ℃/min~20 ℃/min (using dual closed-loop self-learning intelligent PID temperature control to control linear heating). |
Temperature control | Two sets of temperature measuring thermocouples, one set of thermocouples displays the furnace temperature in real-time, and the other set of thermocouples displays the sample temperature during operation |
Temperature control accuracy | ± 0.1 ℃. |
Sample holder | TMA-101:quartz holder TMA-301:Al2O3 |
Range | ± 1000 μm |
Resolution | 0.01 μm (shape variable resolution) |
Sensitivity | 0.01 μm |
Sample range | height 0.3-25mm diameter ≤ 10mm. |
Load range | 0-3.5N (controllable) |
Operating modes | expansion, contraction, bending, needle insertion, etc. |
Test atmosphere | Using a mass flow controller, the two channels of stable and stable gas can automatically switch during the experimental process, with high accuracy, good repeatability, and fast response speed. Atmosphere: inert, oxidizing, reducing, static, dynamic, gas flow rate: 0-200mL/min. The mass flow controller is required to have self calibration function based on different gas densities. |
The instrument automatically collects and processes data by computer, automatically records, stores, and prints expansion coefficient, linear expansion amount, linear variable percentage time curve, linear variable percentage temperature curve, data and table curve, etc. |
