Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of thermogravimetric analysis, especially relates to a zooming thermogravimetric analysis device. BACKGROUND

[0002] Thermogravimetry is a technique for measuring the relationship between mass and temperature of a substance under programmed temperature control. The curve obtained from the thermogravimetry test is called a thermogravimetric curve (TG curve), which has mass as the vertical coordinate, indicating mass reduction from top to bottom, and has temperature (or time) as the horizontal coordinate, indicating temperature (or time) increase from left to right.

[0003] A thermogravimetric analyzer is an instrument for detecting the temperature-mass change relationship of a substance using thermogravimetry. When the measured substance undergoes sublimation, vaporization, decomposition of gas, or loss of crystalline water during heating, the mass of the measured substance changes. At this time, the thermogravimetric curve is not a straight line but has a decline. By analyzing the thermogravimetric curve, it can be known at what temperature the measured substance changes, and according to the weight loss, it can be calculated how much substance is lost.

[0004] Laser head heating is heating using laser energy, and its principle is to focus laser beams on a small point to make the energy density of the laser beams on the point very high, thereby increasing the temperature of the point. Laser head heating has the advantages of high efficiency, precision, and non-contact. Chinese invention patent No. 201810433631.0; 108593483B discloses a high-temperature-rate thermogravimetric analysis system and method based on laser heating, which includes a heating part, a measuring part, and a computer. The heating part includes a laser, a microlens array, a lens, graphite, a half-reflective half-transmissive lens, and a full-reflective mirror group. The measuring part includes a thermal imager, a sealed box, and an electronic balance. The laser beams provided by the laser pass through the microlens array, the lens, and the graphite in sequence. The laser beams emitted from the graphite pass through the half-reflective half-transmissive lens, with one part irradiating the front surface of the measured object and the other part irradiating the rear surface of the measured object. The thermal imager monitors the temperature rise of the front and rear surfaces of the measured object. The electronic balance is used for weighing the measured object. The computer synchronously collects and records the readings of the laser parameters, the thermal imager, and the electronic balance.

[0005] The existing laser heating thermogravimetric analyzer has the problem of complex laser light path design, which makes the equipment cost high. Due to the difference in experimental material types, the area of the material spread in the experimental dish has a large difference. The fixed laser projection path cannot irradiate some materials, which cannot achieve the purpose of uniform heating, thereby affecting the repeatability of experimental data. UTILITY MODEL CONTENTS
