Abstract
A mass spectrometer coupling system for simultaneous TG/DSC/DTA-QMS measurements will be introduced that is capable of operation at temperatures up to 2000°C. The coupling is maintained at a temperature very close to that of the sample, minimizing condensation, and features an extremely short gas flow path. The efficiency of this coupling system will be demonstrated through examples from the area of polymers, ceramics, metallurgy and recycling.
