Hi Everyone

Sorry about the title. Wasn’t trying to be funny or demeaning, but couldn’t think of a better title. It’s the most serious thing most people will be able to remember, or cope with.

What will it be like afterwards?  We probably don’t want to think about that yet – - let’s get through it first.

If anyone is interested at the moment I am still around but working from home. If anyone else is in the same boat …………… difficult to keep the concentration going isn’t it. If you want to get in touch my e-mail is norman.challinor@yahoo.co.uk or if you ring the office they will be happy to give you my mobile number. Allcocks are still open and the offices are manned as normal – ish

Let’s hope it passes safely for as many of everyone as it can.

Keep smiling

Norman

Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA) Testing Service

Posted on by

After investing in a PerkinElmer TGA 4000 machine to measure the ash content of our crumbs we have decided to offer a “TGA Testing Service.”

Our thermogravimetric analysis machine will heat from ambient (room temperature) up to 1000°C. General applications for TGA machines are as follows:

  • Sample volatility
  • Moisture content
  • Oxidation stability
  • Decomposition temperatures
  • Carbon black content
  • Performance of stabilizers
  • Ash Content
  • And much, much more
