Evolved gas analysis /

Focuses on so-called 'hyphenated techniques' (EGA-TGA, TGA-GC/MS, etc), which allow a great deal of chemical information about a sample to be revealed quickly and conveniently. The methods are highly applicable to polymer/plastics samples, but also to other materials including pharmaceutic...
