Differential thermo analysis

The heat effects during physical or chemical conversion are used in differential thermo analysis (DTA) to evaluate the reaction rate together with kinetic and thermodynamic parameters. The apparatus (Fig. 3.3-6) consists of two identical high-pressure cells which are arranged in an oven, a. In one cell the components to be investigated are placed, the other cell... 

A sample is continuously heated at a constant rate (e.g. 10 C min ) while two changes are recorded (1) the temperature difference between an inert compound and the sample with a thermocouple (differential thermo analysis DTA) and (2) the weight loss measured with a balance (thermogravimetry TGA) (Mackenzie, 1957 Smykatz-Kloss, 1974). With DTA, information is obtained about endothermic and exothermic phase transformations (see Fig. 1-2), whereas with TGA adsorbed water and structural OH can be measured.

The literature on MKP mineral is scarce. Sivaprasad et al. [33] and Wagh et al. [34] consider this material as an analog of struvite, in which NH4 is replaced by K, and have determined its crystalline structure. Differential thermal analysis (DTA) and thermo-gravimetric analysis (TGA) indicated that the 6 mol of water in the crystal are loosely bound and escape upon heating at 120°C (Fig. 9.9), after which anhydrous MKP is formed. 

Standard tests are utilized early in the evaluation phase to evaluate flammability, ignition and explosive characteristics. These include differential thermal analysis, thermo gravometric analysis, drop weight tests, friction tests, card gap (shock initiation) tests, and materials compatibility tests. Information derived from the above tests serve as a basis to establish safe procedures and techniques to handle and process the chemicals into propellants. 

Thermo-Raman spectroscopy Raman spectroscopy is a useful technique to extract information during dynamic thermal processes and this specific application is termed as thermo-Raman spectroscopy (TRS). It is possible to investigate thermally induced changes in Raman band positions, band intensities, and bandwidths and correlate with corresponding structural changes in samples. TRS can also provide quantitative information related to the dynamics thermal processes. Unlike techniques such as thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and differential thermal analysis (DTA) which can only provide bulk information associated with thermal properties of a solid sample, TRS can be used to study thermally induced structural transformation in solids [17].

The barium form of zeolite A is of moderate stability, unlike other alkali metal and alkaline earth forms which can be stable to about 1000°C. This work uses the techniques of differential thermal analysis (DTA) and thermo gravimetric analysis (TGA) in conjunction with isotopic labelling and x-ray powder photography to investigate the thermal stability of heteroionic forms of zeolite A. Reasons for the instability of BaA and Na/BaA zeolites are suggested and comparisons made with A zeolites containing Na and Sr cations. 

Thermogravimetric analysis can be utilized to determine the thermal stability of polymers in different environments and temperature ranges of interest. These results can then be compared with those of thermo-mechanical analysis (TMA) and differential thermal analysis (DTA) or differential scanning... 

Since all polymeric intermediates, and in many instances also the final ceramics, are amorphous, only thermal and spectroscopic methods can be utilized to characterize the thermal conversion. The most extensive studies have been performed on the polymer N-methylpolyborosileizane (PBS-Me), made from the single source precursor TADB. The pyrolysis has been monitored in situ by differential thermal analysis combined with thermo-gravimetric analysis and mass spectrometry (DTA/TG/MS). For ex situ investigations, batches of the polymer were treated at different temperatures, cooled to room temperature, and characterized by infrared spectroscopy and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy.

Thermal properties are measured and evaluated by common thermal analysis instruments. For identification of transition temperatures, heat of fusion, differential thermal analysis (DTA), and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) are available. Thermal stability is measured by thermo-gravimetric analysis (TGA), although this technique can give overly optimistic results unless used with great care.
