The PerkinElmer Diamond Thermomechanical Analyzer (TMA) determines dimensional changes in materials as a function of temperature or time. It is used in research and QC to measure changes in length, width, thickness and linear expansion of materials. TMA sampling accessories (Not included) facilitate various measurements, including expansion coefficient, glass transition, softening, swelling, gel time, creep, stress-strain, stress-relaxation, and Young’s modulus measurements. With a sample basket, the TMA can also measure large weight loss like a high volume TGA
