Assist Prof. Dr. Hussein Ali Shnawa, a lecturer at the Polymer Research Center, organized a seminar, entitled “Thermogravimetric Analysis (TG or TGA) and its Research Applications”. He pointed out the principles of this analytical technique and how TGA can be employed in the area of research for the materials characterization, determination of the estimated lifetime of a product decomposition kinetics of materials and study the effect of reactive or corrosive atmospheres on materials, moisture and volatiles content of paints or other materials.
