Loss-on-Ignition (LOI)

Loss on Ignition (LOI) in combustion residues is a critical quality parameter for cement and related industries. Macro thermogravimetric analysis using the LECO TGA801 enables accurate, representative LOI measurements on heterogeneous samples.

Several methods of determining moisture and ash content, with a focus on the weight loss on drying method for moisture and the weight loss after combustion method for ash.

Loss on Ignition (LOI) and Split Loss testing are critical for evaluating cement quality, water content, and carbonation. Using thermogravimetric analysis, the LECO TGA801 uniquely performs Split LOI measurements at multiple temperatures in a sing...
