ADMET polymers are easily characterized using common analysis techniques, including nuclear magnetic resonance ( H and 13C NMR), infrared (IR) spectra, elemental analysis, gel permeation chromatography (GPC), vapor pressure osmometry (VPO), membrane osmometry (MO), thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA), and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The preparation of poly(l-octenylene) (10) via the metathesis of 1,9-decadiene (9) is an excellent model polymerization to study ADMET, since the monomer is readily available and the polymer is well known.21 The NMR characterization data (Fig. 8.9) for the hydrogenated versions of poly(l-octenylene) illustrate the clean and selective nature of ADMET. 

In addition to these standardised test methods set by regulation (in particular the transport regulations of dangerous substances), there are laboratory methods that can provide more details regarding substance behaviour. In particular, there is differential thermal analysis (DTA), thermal gravimetric analysis, calorimetry and thermomanometry, which will not be described here. 

Thermal Analysis - Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) and thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) were used to characterize the thermal properties of the polymers synthesized. DSC analysis was performed on a Perkin-Elmer Differential Scanning Calorimeter, Model 2C with a thermal analysis data station. Thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) was carried out on a DuPont thermal gravimeter, Model 951. From the DSC and TGA plots of poly (N-pheny 1-3,4-dimethylene-... 

From the discussion presented of reactions in solids, it should be apparent that it is not practical in most cases to determine the concentration of some species during a kinetic study. In fact, it may be necessary to perform the analysis in a continuous way as the sample reacts with no separation necessary or even possible. Experimental methods that allow measurement of the progress of the reaction, especially as the temperature is increased, are particularly valuable. Two such techniques are thermo-gravimetric analysis (TGA) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). These techniques have become widely used to characterize solids, determine thermal stability, study phase changes, and so forth. Because they are so versatile in studies on solids, these techniques will be described briefly. 

Differential Thermal Analysis (DTA) and Thermal Gravimetric Analysis (TGA). CTC-HC1 is stable until it begins to decompose exothermically at approximately 230°C (Figures 2 and 3) (15). The compound does not lose any mass until the final decomposition takes place. No polymorphs have been seen in the samples examined. 

Thermoanalytical methods essentially encompass such techniques that are based entirely on the concept of heating a sample followed by well-defned modified procedures, such as gravimetric analysis, differential analysis and titrimetric analysis. In usual practice, data are generated as a result of continuously recorded curves that may be considered as thermal spectra . These thermal spectra also termed as thermograms, often characterize a single or multicomponent system in terms of ... 

The nature of the water present within a PEM can also have an effect upon its performance during PEMFC operahon. At /I > 6, water exists in the three forms previously mentioned in Section 3.2.1 free water, loosely bound water, and nonfreezable water. This has been established by Eourier transform infrared (FTIR) studies and more recently by calorimetry and gravimetric analysis. Pulse NMR has also been used in conjunchon with differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) to analyze the contributions of these three different types of water in Nation and BPSH membranes. These values can be seen in Table 3.1. 

Resin Analysis. Thermal analysis of the BCB resin systems included Differential Scanning Calorisietry (DSC) using a DuPont 010 cell and Thermal Gravimetric Analysis (TGA) run on a DuPont 951 TGA, the entire thermal analysis system run using an Omnitherm model 35053... 

Thanks to the extensive literature on Aujj and the related smaller gold cluster compounds, plus some new results and reanalysis of older results to be presented here, it is now possible to paint a fairly consistent physical picture of the AU55 cluster system. To this end, the results of several microscopic techniques, such as Extended X-ray Absorption Fine Structure (EXAFS) [39,40,41], Mossbauer Effect Spectroscopy (MES) [24, 25, 42,43,44,45,46], Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry (SIMS) [35, 36], Photoemission Spectroscopy (XPS and UPS) [47,48,49], nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) [29, 50, 51], and electron spin resonance (ESR) [17, 52, 53, 54] will be combined with the results of several macroscopic techniques, such as Specific Heat (Cv) [25, 54, 55, 56,49], Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) [57], Thermo-gravimetric Analysis (TGA) [58], UV-visible absorption spectroscopy [40, 57,17, 59, 60], AC and DC Electrical Conductivity [29,61,62, 63,30] and Magnetic Susceptibility [64, 53]. This is the first metal cluster system that has been subjected to such a comprehensive examination.

Major methods involved with the generation of information about thermal property behavior of materials include thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), differential thermal analysis (DTA), torsional braid analysis (TBA), thermal mechanical analysis (TMA), and pyrolysis gas chromatography (PGC).
