This test method will be useful in conducting a compositional analysis where agreed upon by the interested parties.

ASTM E1131 Standard Test Method for Composition Analysis by Thermogravimetry

This standard is applicable to solids and liquids.

The temperature range of the test is typically room temperature to 1000°C. The composition of the individual components from 1 to 100% by weight can be determined.

This standard uses an inert and reactive gas environment.

Computer- or electronic-based tools, techniques, or equivalent data processing may also be used. Users of this test method are expressly advised that not all such instruments or techniques may be equivalent. It is the responsibility of the user of this test method to determine the required equivalence before use.


This standard does not purport to address all, if any, security issues associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices prior to use and to determine the applicability of regulatory restrictions.
