2.1

Title

Supply of a Simultaneous Thermogravimetric Analyser

2.2

Description of the goods or services required

A thermogravimetric analyser with a fine control of heating rate that is also capable of studying the heat flow in and out of sample materials. The instrument is required to study the thermal behaviour of a wide range of materials, in line with the above, and as such needs to be able to operate over a wide temperature range. This instrument will be used heavily by several research groups across the faculty and is required to operate robustly with high throughput. As such, an autosampler is required and a cooling system to reduce the times in between experiments. Input of two different gases into the system during analysis, including inert gases and carbon dioxide is also a requirement. An instrument with a top loading balance is also highly desirable to facilitate sample loading/ unloading.
