COLUMBUS, Ohio (August 12, 2014) – Measurements under conditions of controlled relative humidity provide information that is crucial for understanding the effects that moisture content can have on the properties of a wide range of materials. METTLER TOLEDO will offer a live webinar on Wednesday, August 27, 2014, covering TGA-Sorption analysis which gives answers regarding processing, shelf life of products and structural properties.
The TGA-Sorption System allows users to precondition samples at temperatures up to 150 °C and to increase or decrease the relative humidity. Product stability, processability and mechanical stability can be influenced by moisture. It is important to know how food products, powders or polymers react in a well-defined humid environment. The influence of humidity depends on the material or the constituents of the formulation or product. In general, the moisture absorbed by materials is classified either as free water or as chemically bound water. TGA-Sorption can be used to study drying processes or the adsorption and desorption behavior of moisture. In this Webinar, we will discuss the basic principles of the TGA-Sorption System and present some interesting applications.
Key topics will include:
• Basic Principles of TGA-Sorption
• Why Use TGA-Sorption?
• Relative Humidity Calibration
• Industries and Applications
• Application Examples
After this free, 35-minute presentation (English), there will be an opportunity to participate in a Q&A session and discuss direct points of interest with METTLER TOLEDO application experts.
