TA Instruments invites you to experience two new high pressure thermogravimetric (HP-TGA) instruments, the Discovery HP-TGA 75 and HP-TGA 750. From the world leader in Magnetic Suspension Balance (MSB) technology for over 20 years comes an ingeniously designed, user-friendly top-loading microbalance with unprecedented performance. In addition, the Discovery HP-TGA’s are the first available in a convenient benchtop design and feature on-board gas dosing and blending systems, temperature control to 1100°C, One-Touch-Away™ functionality, and TA’s powerful TRIOS software. Getting great high pressure data has never been so easy!
Description:
- Patented* top-loading magnetic levitation balance enables sealed environment for thermogravimetric testing in reactive atmospheres under high pressure (up to 80 bar) and high temperatures (up to 1100°C)
- Unrivaled 0.1 μg balance resolution provides the most accurate measurements of small samples or materials with rapid reaction kinetics
- Top-loading balance design ensures superior weight stability at high temperature and pressure, and provides convenient access to sample for easy loading/unloading
- Integrated gas dosing & pressure control eliminates need for a separate system and enables a compact footprint
- Highly accurate balance temperature control for optimized baseline stability
- Non-porous isolation material in contact with the reaction gas within the furnace eliminates potential retention of gases (“memory” effect) and enables rapid attainment of vacuum
- Curie-point calibration eliminates the effects of the reaction gas type and pressure on the temperature measurement
- Compact design puts high pressure TGA on the benchtop, minimizing valuable lab space requirements and enabling installation in a fume hood to easily manage ventilation when working with toxic gases
- High heating and cooling rates (~250 K/min**), even under high pressure, reduces potential for unwanted side reactions and improves sample throughput
- Small internal volume allows for rapid gas changes and quick pressurization, low gas consumption, and safe operational conditions due to the small quantity of compressed gas
* European Patent: 1958323, U.S. Patent: 2009/0160279 Al, German Patent : DE 10 2015 116 767.0
** Cooling rate at ~250 K/min possible when at T ≥ 300°C

Powder Rheology
TA Instruments - Waters LLCThe TA Instruments/Waters Powder Rheology Accessory extends the Discovery Hybrid Rheometer to characterize powder behavior during storage, handling, processing, and use. Quantitative dynamic flow and shear measurements—under ambient or controlled temperature—accelerate development, optimize processes, screen materials, and reveal powder morphology differences to prevent scale‑up issues.
High Sensitivity Pressure Cell (HSPC) - Ares G2
TA Instruments - Waters LLCThe all new High Sensitivity Pressure Cell (HSPC) for the ARES-G2 unlocks complete viscoelastic characterization of fluids in a pressurized environment. The HSPC is the only device that provides a wide range of dynamic oscillatory testing of materials, including low viscosity polymer solutions and structured fluids under controlled atmospheric pressure. The HSPC provides pressure (up to 5 bar) and temperature (-10 °C to 150 °C) control for viscoelastic characterization. Conventional pressure cells employ mechanical bearings that severely limit low torque sensitivity and make viscoelastic characterization impractical for most samples. The HSPC employs an innovative air bearing seal that allows unrivaled low torque performance with 100x better torque sensitivity than conventional devices. This unmatched torque sensitivity allows users to characterize critical material behavior such as time, frequency, and strain-dependence in test conditions representative of extreme processing or use conditions such as downhole or extrusion environments on the widest range of fluids.
