Thermomechanical Analysis

TMA: Determine thermal properties of materials using minimal force at different temperatures.

Thermomechanical Analysis (TMA) is a branch of material science that deals with the changing temperature of the material. It provides valuable information on the properties of materials using thermal analysis techniques. it also includes information on solids and other materials to detect glass transition temperature of highly cross-linked materials and more.

A sample of polymeric material is heated on a platform made from quartz. A rod is used to apply pressure, and when the sample gets warm, material expansion occurs. Then the rod changes position.

One needs expertise in carrying out the process without any mistakes. If you are looking for a team of professionals, then you can reach out to the Nishka research company. The platform is comprising of a group of competent researchers working with perfection. Our trained and well-versed polymer experts are experienced in a wide variety of applications. In these years of work, they have been leveraging the expertise and helping individuals achieve success.

Our deliverables at Nishka are highly quality data, certifications, and test reports. You can rely on us on all parameters- materials, components, and results.

There are several standardized tests:

• ASTM E831
• ASTM E1545
• ASTM E2092
• ISO 11359

It measures the materials’ mechanical properties with the help of test specimens and fixture geometries. A range of probe types is used in mechanical testing for TMA. The minimum disturbance is considered to effectively carry out testing. But for some materials, work can be done with zero disturbance. The names of such parameters are density, mass, volume, and many more. The combined material and measuring device are often reflected in the measurement. The external stimulus in thermomechanical analysis can be either stress or strain. The technique where stress is applied is known as thermomechanometry.

Our experienced team of researchers and polymer scientists ensures precise and reliable results, adhering to globally recognized standards such as ASTM E831, ASTM E1545, ASTM E2092, and ISO 11359. We provide high-quality data reports, certifications, and insights, helping you make informed decisions for your material performance and product development. We also offer mechanical testing options using various probe types and fixture geometries, tailored for accurate evaluation of properties like density, mass, volume, and deformation under stress or strain. For applications requiring dynamic mechanical interaction, we also conduct thermomechanometry, where stress is systematically applied to evaluate mechanical behavior under thermal exposure. Whether you’re in need of analytical services for product development, academic research, or industrial testing, Nishka Research is your trusted partner in thermal and material characterization.
