When materials are exposed to heat, their real behavior becomes clear. Moisture evaporates, volatile compounds are released, polymers degrade, fillers remain, and residue forms. If this thermal behavior is not measured properly, product decisions are made based on assumptions. That is why choosing a reliable thermal gravimetric analysis lab in Chennai – Kiyo R&D Lab is important for industries that depend on material quality and performance.
At Kiyo R&D Lab, thermal gravimetric analysis, commonly known as TGA, is used to understand how materials behave under controlled temperature conditions. This test helps clients evaluate thermal stability, decomposition behavior, moisture content, volatile content, filler content, ash content, and residue percentage.
A material may look suitable at room temperature but fail when exposed to heat during processing, storage, or actual use. This is common in plastics, polymers, rubber, coatings, adhesives, composites, and industrial materials.
By choosing thermal gravimetric analysis lab in Chennai – Kiyo R&D Lab, clients can:
Thermal gravimetric analysis measures the change in sample weight as temperature increases. The result is shown as a weight-loss curve, which helps identify how the material changes during heating.
At Kiyo R&D Lab, the result is not treated as only a graph. It is reviewed based on material type, application, and client requirement so the report supports real technical decisions.
A professional thermal gravimetric analysis lab in Chennai – Kiyo R&D Lab follows a controlled testing process. A small sample is placed in the TGA instrument and heated under defined conditions. The instrument continuously measures the weight change as the temperature increases.
Controlled testing conditions are important because heating rate, atmosphere, sample quantity, and method settings can influence the result.
TGA is widely used for plastics, polymers, rubber, and elastomers because these materials often contain multiple components such as polymers, plasticizers, fillers, carbon black, additives, and inorganic residue.
For plastic and polymer samples, TGA helps evaluate degradation temperature, moisture content, filler percentage, and material consistency. For rubber samples, TGA can help study volatile content, polymer degradation, carbon black, filler content, and ash residue depending on the test condition.
Thermal gravimetric analysis is also useful for coatings, paints, composites, adhesives, powders, packaging materials, and industrial raw materials. It helps identify how much material is lost during heating and what percentage remains as residue.
This is useful for formulation comparison, supplier approval, batch consistency checks, R&D development, and failure investigation. When material performance is affected by heat, TGA gives measurable evidence.
Clients do not need just a TGA curve. They need answers. A useful TGA report should help explain whether the material is stable, whether it matches the approved sample, whether filler content is consistent, or whether degradation is happening earlier than expected.
Kiyo R&D Lab focuses on practical reporting that helps clients answer:
A wrong TGA interpretation can lead to wrong material approval, poor product design, customer rejection, or repeated failures. This is why testing must be performed with proper method control and careful interpretation.
Kiyo R&D Lab focuses on accurate sample handling, controlled heating, reliable measurement, and clear technical reporting. This makes thermal gravimetric analysis lab in Chennai – Kiyo R&D Lab a dependable testing partner for quality and R&D teams.
TGA is useful across industries where thermal behavior affects product performance.

Thermal gravimetric analysis is used to measure weight change in a material during heating. It helps evaluate thermal stability, moisture content, volatile content, decomposition behavior, filler content, ash content, and residue percentage.
Yes. Thermal gravimetric analysis can be used for rubber materials to evaluate volatile content, polymer degradation, carbon black, filler content, ash content, and thermal stability depending on the testing condition.
Yes. TGA can compare a good sample and a failed sample by studying differences in weight loss pattern, decomposition temperature, residue content, and thermal stability. This is useful for failure analysis and complaint investigation.
TGA measures weight change during heating, while DSC measures heat flow related to transitions such as melting, crystallization, curing, and glass transition. Both tests are useful, but they answer different material questions.
Clients should choose Kiyo R&D Lab because the lab provides accurate TGA testing, practical interpretation, professional reporting, and technical support for quality control, R&D, supplier approval, and failure investigation.
