High-temperature combustion of a sample in the presence of oxygen has been one of the standard methods of elemental analysis for many years, especially for the determination of carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, and sulphur in organic compounds. In this method, the sample is broken down by the high temperatures, and these elements come out of the […]

In Thermogravimetric Analysis, both sample and reference are given an equal amount of energy. The device measures the difference in the temperature of the sample compared to the reference. If the sample is undergoing an endothermic process (absorbing heat), the temperature decreases, and the slope of the peak on the TGA power as a function […]
