Why DSC & TGA Testing Matters

Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) is essential for understanding the thermal properties of polymers, composites, and materials. It measures heat flow as a function of temperature, revealing critical information about glass transition temperature (Tg), melting point (Tm), crystallinity, and thermal stability—all crucial for product quality and performance.

Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA) determines how materials respond to heating by measuring mass loss over temperature. This technique is invaluable for assessing thermal degradation, composition analysis, moisture content, and long-term stability—particularly for automotive, electronic, and rubber applications where thermal performance is non-negotiable.

At Kiyo R&D Lab, our DSC and TGA testing services in Chennai are backed by NABL-accreditation, advanced instrumentation, and expert interpretation—ensuring your materials meet the highest standards of thermal performance and reliability.

Our DSC & TGA Testing Services

Glass Transition Temperature (Tg)

Determine critical temperature at which polymers transition from hard to soft state. Essential for thermal stability assessment.

Melting Point (Tm) & Fusion Heat

Measure melting temperature and enthalpy of fusion to assess crystallinity and purity of polymeric materials.

Crystallization Temperature (Tc)

Analyze crystallization behavior during cooling to understand polymer processing and thermal history.

Thermal Stability & Decomposition

Detect exothermic degradation events and thermal stability windows critical for processing and storage.

Thermal Decomposition Profile (TGA)

Track mass loss across temperature range to identify decomposition temperatures and thermal degradation mechanisms.

Moisture & Volatile Content Analysis

Quantify moisture, residual solvents, and volatile compounds—critical for pharmaceutical and electronic materials.

Ash Content & Residue Analysis

Determine inorganic material and filler content via residue measurement at high temperature.

Composition & Additive Quantification

Identify and quantify polymer additives, fillers, and composite components through multi-step thermal analysis.

Detailed Breakdown of DSC & TGA Analysis

What DSC Testing Reveals:

  • Phase Transitions: Identify crystalline-amorphous transitions, polymorphic forms, and thermal behavior
  • Cure Kinetics: Monitor epoxy, polyester, and thermoset curing reactions in real-time
  • Purity Assessment: Evaluate material purity and detect contaminants through unexpected thermal events
  • Heat Flow Analysis: Quantify endothermic and exothermic processes for material characterization
  • Thermal History: Understand processing conditions, annealing effects, and prior thermal exposure

What TGA Testing Reveals:

  • Thermal Stability: Identify onset decomposition temperatures and usable thermal range
  • Composition Analysis: Determine filler content, reinforcement percentage, and additive loading
  • Multi-Step Degradation: Resolve complex thermal events in composites, blends, and filled polymers
  • Residue Characterization: Analyze non-volatile residues, char content, and mineral composition
  • Shelf-Life Prediction: Assess long-term thermal stability for storage and use conditions

Frequently Asked Questions About DSC & TGA Testing

What is the difference between DSC and TGA testing?

DSC (Differential Scanning Calorimetry) measures heat flow associated with phase transitions and chemical reactions. It’s ideal for determining glass transition temperature (Tg), melting points, crystallinity, and cure kinetics.

TGA (Thermogravimetric Analysis) measures mass loss over temperature. It’s used to identify decomposition temperatures, moisture content, ash content, and composition of materials. Together, DSC and TGA provide complementary information about your material’s thermal behavior.

What materials can be tested with DSC & TGA?

DSC & TGA testing can analyze:

  • Thermoplastics (PET, PP, PE, PA, PC, ABS, PMMA)
  • Thermosets (epoxy, polyester, phenolic resins)
  • Elastomers and rubbers (natural, synthetic, EPDM, NBR)
  • Composites and fiber-reinforced plastics
  • Pharmaceuticals and fine chemicals
  • Coatings and adhesives
  • Filled and unfilled materials

Our NABL-accredited lab handles materials from automotive, medical, electronics, and consumer goods industries.

How long does DSC & TGA testing take?

Test duration varies based on your application:

  • DSC Standard Test: 30–60 minutes per sample (depending on heating rate and temperature range)
  • TGA Standard Test: 45–90 minutes per sample (from room temperature to degradation completion)
  • Sample Prep: 1–2 days for weighing and setup
  • Data Analysis & Report: 1–3 business days

Total turnaround: 3–7 business days depending on workload. Rush testing available upon request.

What is the cost of DSC & TGA testing?

Pricing depends on test complexity and sample quantity:

  • Basic DSC (Tg, Tm only): ₹3,000–₹5,000 per sample
