Thermoanalytical techniques

Thermoanalytical techniques are methods used to study how materials respond to changes in temperature. By heating or cooling a sample, scientists can observe properties such as melting points, decomposition, phase changes, and stability. These techniques help analyze composition, thermal behavior, and chemical reactions, providing valuable information for fields like materials science, chemistry, and engineering. Common methods include Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) and Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA), which measure heat flow and weight changes, respectively, to characterize a material’s thermal properties accurately.
