EN ISO 11358-1 Plastics - Standard Test for Thermogravimetry of Polymers

EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of EN ISO 11358-1 testing. EN ISO 11358-1 specifies general conditions for the analysis of polymers using thermogravimetric techniques. Applies to liquids or solids. Solid materials may be in the form of pellets, granules or powders. Fabricated shapes reduced to the appropriate sample size can also be analyzed by this method.

Applies to liquid or solid materials. Solid materials may be in the form of pellets, granules or powders. Fabricated shapes reduced to the appropriate sample size can also be analyzed by this method.

Thermogravimetry can be used to determine the temperatures and degradation rates of polymers, as well as to measure the amount of volatile matter, additives or fillers they contain.

Thermogravimetric measurements can be performed in dynamic mode (mass change versus time or time under programmed conditions) or in isothermal mode (mass change versus time at constant temperature). Thermogravimetric measurements can also be performed using different test atmospheres, for example, to distinguish degradation from oxidative degradation in an inert atmosphere.

A test sample is heated at specified rates by a controlled temperature program, and the change in mass is measured as a function of temperature. Alternatively, the sample is held at a certain constant temperature and the change in mass is measured as a function of time over a given period of time.

EUROLAB assists manufacturers with EN ISO 11358-1 test compliance. Our test experts, with their professional working mission and principles, provide you, our manufacturers and suppliers, the best service and controlled testing process in our laboratories.
