Common applications of TGA are (1) materials characterization through analysis of characteristic decomposition patterns, (2) studies of degradation mechanisms and reaction kinetics, (3) determination of organic content in a sample, and (4) determination of inorganic (e.g. ash) content in a sample, which may be useful for corroborating predicted material structures or simply used as a chemical analysis. It is an especially useful technique for the study of polymeric materials, including thermoplastics, thermosets, elastomers, composites, plastic films, fibres, coatings and paints.

Thermo gravimetric analysis is a technique that measures the mass of the sample while it is heated, cooled or held isothermally in a defined atmosphere. It is mainly used for quantitative analysis of the products. A typical TGA curve shows the mass loss steps relating to the loss of volatile components (moisture, solvents, monomers), polymer decomposition, combustion of carbon black, and final residues (ash, filler, glass fibre). The method allows us to study decomposition of products and materials and to draw conclusions about their individual constituents
