Differential hydrothermal analysis

There is a wide sphere of applicability of DTA/DSC technique, which is regularly described in satisfactory details in the individual apparatus manuals or other books [1,15,602,613,640,646]. The usage can be sorted in to two classes The methods based on the (1) modified instrumentation such as (i) high-pressure studies [647] or (ii) differential hydrothermal analysis [648] and the measurements applicable under the (2) ordinary apparatus set up such (iii) determination of phase boundaries [646,649], (iv) impurity measurements [650,651] and (ivi) reaction kinetics (see previous Chapter [3,425,508-510,521]. Specifically constructed instrumentations [1,15,602] falls beyond the scope of this book so that we shall concentrate on the second type of applications.
