STA PT1000 Simultaneous Thermal Analyzer｜Integrated TGA–DSC Thermal Analysis System
The STA PT1000 is a simultaneous thermal analyzer that integrates Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA) and Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) into a single system. Within one single measurement run, both mass change and heat flow signals can be recorded simultaneously. With a maximum operating temperature of 1000°C, the system is particularly suitable for investigating thermal decomposition, phase transitions, and thermal stability of materials in the medium-temperature range. Typical applications include polymers, inorganic materials, battery materials, and energy-related materials.
Key Features
- Simultaneous TGA + DSC measurement: Mass change curves and heat flow curves are obtained in a single experiment, improving efficiency and enabling direct data correlation.
- Maximum temperature up to 1000°C: Covers the temperature range required for most polymer, chemical, and general material development applications.
- High-resolution microbalance: TGA mass resolution down to 0.1 μg, suitable for detecting subtle mass changes.
- Dual gas control: Independent control of reactive and protective gases, supporting inert, oxidative, and reductive atmospheres.
- Thermal stability and reaction heat analysis: Enables evaluation of thermal decomposition, redox reactions, phase transitions, and reaction enthalpy.
- Intelligent software platform: Advanced analysis software supports curve overlay, dynamic peak evaluation, enthalpy calculation, and Cp determination.
Main Application Areas
- Lithium batteries and energy materials: Thermal stability, reaction heat, and decomposition behavior analysis.
- Polymers and composites: Decomposition temperature, glass transition, melting and crystallization behavior.
- Inorganic and functional materials: Mass loss behavior, redox processes, and phase transition tracking.
- Catalytic materials: Comparison of thermal behavior before and after treatment, and evaluation of catalytic activity.
