  3. Introduction • A general accepted definition of thermal analysis is a group of techniques in which a physical property of a substance and/or its reaction products is measured as a function of temperature while the substance is subjected to a controlled temperature program. • We will confine to three of the methods, which provide primarily chemical rather than physical information about samples of matter.

  4. Three Methods • Thermogravimetry (TG) • Differential thermal analysis (DTA) • Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC)

  5. Thermogravimetric Methods • In thermo gravimetric analysis, the mass of a sample in a controlled atmosphere is recorded continuously as a function of temperature or time as the temperature of the sample is increased (usually linear with time).Thermogravimetry is the measurement of the mass of a sample as the temperature increases. • This method is useful for determining sample purity and water, carbonate, and organic content; and for studying decomposition reactions.

  6. Differential Thermal Analysis (DTA) Differential thermal analysis is the measurement of the difference in temperature between a sample and a reference as heat is applied to the system.

  7. This method is sensitive to endothermic and exothermic processes including: • phase transitions • Dehydration • decomposition • Redox • solid-state reactions

  8. Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) • Differential scanning calorimetry independently measures the rate of heat flow to a sample and a standard that are at the same temperature. Data is taken by monitoring the differential heat flow as a function of temperature. • DSC is useful to make the same measurements as DTA and has the added capability to measure heat capacities.

  9. Instrumentation • Sensitive analytical balance • Furnace • Purge gas system (for providing an inert atmosphere) • Microcomputer/microprocessor (for instrument control and data acquisition and display).
