Pharmaceutical, Foods and Cosmetic Industries

Thermal Analysis is a powerful set of methods for the characterization of pure substances and blends. Used either in complement with or as a supplement to classical techniques employed in chemical laboratories such as spectroscopical methods, chromatography or X-ray structure analysis, Thermal Analysis yields valuable information about the physical-chemical properties of materials. Typical areas of application are purity studies, the determination of melting or glass transition temperatures, polymorphism studies, the determination of phase diagrams, studies of interaction between components, the determination of thermal stabilities, the analysis of composites, and the study of decomposition kinetics. This makes Thermal Analysis to a versatile problem-solving tool in research & development, quality assurance and process optimization.


The Methods:

The methods most often used in the areas of pharmaceuticals, cosmetics and foods are DSC (Differential Scanning Calorimetry), TG (Thermogravimetry) and DMA (Dynamic-Mechanical Analysis).

A DSC measures the change in thermal efficiency (heat absorption or loss) of a sample during heating or cooling as compared to an inert reference. With a thermobalance (TG), the mass change of a sample as a function of temperature or time can be determined. The DMA yields modulus values (storage modulus, loss modulus, loss factor) and draws conclusions about the visco-elastic behavior of materials.


Our Solution:

NETZSCH Analyzing & Testing offers you complete solution packages for your needs, consisting of hardware, software, comprehensive services and expert support – while fully conforming to regulations such as GMP, GLP or 21 CFR Part 11.
