Microscopic Analysis

Microscopic Analysis

A high-resolution optical microscope (Leica) and a scanning electron microscope (Phenom, ICON) are used for microscopic analysis. With a resolution of up to nanometers, SEM is equipped with backscattered detectors and EDX (for elemental analysis). Through elemental analysis, these tools are used to analyze the surface attributes of materials such as size, shape and chemical identity. This approach was employed in textile to determine the nature of additive molecule binding on the substrate.

Thermogravimetric Analysis

Thermogravimetric Analysis

Thermogravimetric (TGA) analysis is a technique for assessing a material's thermal stability in the presence of nitrogen and in the ambient atmosphere. TGA is used to analyze the thermal stability of textile additives. TGA is attached to a mass spectrometer, allowing for the analysis of evolved gases using the MS detector and, as a corollary, chemical identification of unknown molecules is conducted using library.
