Linseis Thermomechanical Analysis - Cryo TMA

Product catalog summary

Introduction to Thermomechanical Analysis (TMA)
Thermomechanical Analysis (TMA) is a technique used to measure sample displacement as a function of temperature, time, and applied force. It is primarily used to characterize linear expansion, glass transitions, and softening points of materials by applying a constant force while varying temperature. Other applications include measuring penetration, bending, tension, shrinkage, swelling, and creep.

Typical Applications

Tension studies of films and fibers
Determination of softening behavior and glass transition temperatures
Phase change determination
Mechanical behavior under applied force
Expansion coefficient determination
Sintering behavior and volumetric expansion
E modulus and friction resistance

General Features

High resolution for measuring nanometer changes
Dynamic Load TMA for weak transitions and elasticity
Temperature range from -260°C to 220°C
Calculated DTA for simultaneous thermal effect measurements
Modular design for future expansion
Gas tight cell for controlled measurement environment

Technical Specifications
The TMA system includes a sample chamber with controlled temperature and atmosphere, a robust furnace for rapid heating and cooling, and a precise expansion and temperature sensor. The Dynamic TMA mode allows for studying visco-elastic behavior with alternating force exerted on the probe.

Software Features

PC controlled with Microsoft® Windows® compatibility
Includes modules for temperature control, data acquisition, and evaluation
Features text editing, data security, thermocouple break protection, and curve comparison
Supports data export to MS Excel and multi-methods analysis
Includes statistical evaluation and automatic axis re-scaling

TMA/DTMA Features

With low constant load: Linear thermal expansion, volume change, phase transformation, sinter process evaluation, softening point determination, and swelling behavior
With increased constant load: Penetration, transition tests, and 3-point bending test
With dynamic load: Visco-elastic behavior

• Highest Resolution allows to measure smallest nanometer changes Thermo mechanical analysis (TMA) easily and rapidly measures sample displacement (growth, shrinkage, movement, etc.) as a function of tem- measures weak transitions and elasticity perature, time, and applied force. Traditionally, TMA is used to characte- rize linear expansion, glass transitions, and softening points of materials by applying a constant force to a specimen while varying temperature. For expansion measurements, a probe rests on a sample on a stage with simultaneous measurements of thermal effects minimal downward...
