Simultaneous Thermal Analysis generally refers to the simultaneous application of Thermogravimetry (TG) and Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) to one and the same sample in one instrument. The advantages are obvious: The test conditions are perfectly identical for the TG and DSC signals (same atmosphere, gas flow rate, vapor pressure on the sample, heating rate, thermal contact to the sample crucible and sensor, radiation effect, etc.). Furthermore, it improves sample throughput as more information is gathered from each test run. Since the early years of its existence, NETZSCH has given high priority to the development and continuing optimization of its Simultaneous Thermal Analyzers yielding the new STA 449 F1 Jupiter®. It meets nearly all respective instrument and application standards for TG and DSC systems including: ISO 11357, ISO 11358, ASTM E 967, ASTM E 968, ASTM E 793, ASTM D 3895, DIN 51004, DIN 51006, DIN 51007.
