<p><span style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10.0000pt;">Creative Biostructure, a biotechnology company specialized in providing products and services in structural science, offers various thermodynamics analytical services to study the binding mechanism of biomolecules. Recently, Creative Biostructure enhanced its </span><a href="https://www.creative-biostructure.com/maghelix%E2%84%A2-thermal-gravimetric-analysis-tga-216.htm"><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><span style="font-family:'Times New Roman';color:#0000ff;font-size:10pt;">thermal gravimetric analysis</span></span></a><span style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10.0000pt;">&nbsp;services covering food, pharmaceuticals, polymers, as well as other materials.</span></p><p><span style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10.0000pt;">&nbsp;</span></p><p><span style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10.0000pt;">Thermal Gravimetric Analysis (TG or </span><a href="https://www.creative-biostructure.com/maghelix%E2%84%A2-thermal-gravimetric-analysis-tga-216.htm"><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><span style="font-family:'Times New Roman';color:#0000ff;font-size:10pt;">TGA</span></span></a><span style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10.0000pt;">) refers to a thermal analysis technique that measures the relationship between the mass of the sample to be tested and the temperature change under program-controlled temperature, and is used to study the thermal stability and composition of materials. It is worth mentioning that the definition of mass change rather than weight change is based on the fact that under the action of a magnetic field, when ferromagnetic materials reach the Curie point, although there is no mass change, there is apparent weightlessness.</span></p><p><span style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10.0000pt;">&nbsp;</span></p><p><span style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10.0000pt;">TGA is a commonly used detection method in research and development and quality control. Thermogravimetric analysis is often used in combination with other analysis methods in actual material analysis to conduct comprehensive thermal analysis and analyze materials comprehensively and accurately.</span></p><p><span style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10.0000pt;">&nbsp;</span></p><p><strong><span style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;">Typical applications of TGA at Creative Biostructure include:</span></strong><strong></strong></p><p><span style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10.0000pt;">*Determining thermal stability&mdash;if a substance (such as ceramic or polymer) is thermally stable, no mass change will be seen.</span></p><p><span style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10.0000pt;">*The most prevalent visible losses in TGA are oxidative mass losses, which are used to determine oxidative stability.
