In this video, I show you a very cool instrument that can be found in many laboratories that deal with materials science, especially where they study high-temperature corrosion. This device is a thermogravimetric analyzer. It is a very delicate balance that can detect minuscule weight changes.
*The device cannot compete with load cells when it comes to range, but it can when it comes to precision, accuracy and especially resolution.
