Precise Heat Control: What Every Scientist Needs to Know About Pyrolytic Techniques to Solve Real Problems

The performance of a material is greatly influenced by its thermal and chemical properties. Analytical pyrolysis, when coupled to a GCMS system, is a powerful technique that can unlock the thermal and chemical properties of almost any substance and provide vital information. At NASA, we depend on precise thermal analysis instrumentation for understanding aerospace travel. Our analytical techniques allow us to test materials in the laboratory prior to an actual field test; whether the field test is miles up in the sky or miles underground, the properties of any involved material must be fully studied and understood in the laboratory
