Thermal as incomplete information
Water?
Oil? Organics?
Polymer burns?
Carbon black to CO2?
Inorganic ash?
Structured carbon?

What’s missing
Thermal Technique What we measure What’s missing Hyphenated Technique
DSC Changes in heat capacity and
enthalpy
Chemical or structural
information associated with
changes
NIR, Raman, MS
TGA or STA Loss of weight on heating What comes off in a weight loss FTIR, MS, GC, GCMS, IR-GCMS,
ICP-MS,
TMA Size changes on heating Structural changes associated
with size changes
NIR, Raman, UV
DMA Stiffness changes with heating,
Frequency, and Strain
Structural or chemical changes
associated with measured
changes
NIR, Raman, UV, MS

A quick history…
• 1960s – Use of TGA with MS
◦ Limitations imposed by the vacuum TGA could hold
◦ Gas were collected and manually transferred initially
• 1970s – Development of better systems
◦ Transfers lines improved, alterative direct TGMS system tried
◦ Other techniques still used “gas bomb”
• 1980s – Wendlandt listed TCD, GC and MS as coupled to TGA
◦ Development of FTIRs lead to TG-IR
• 1990s – Provder et al “Hyphenated Techniques in Thermal Analysis”
◦ Collected work to date
5
Looking at Hyphenated techniques
• We could divide
them:
◦ Secondary
measure on the
sample
◦ Measurement of
evolved gas
from the sample
TMA/
DMA
Raman
NIR
UV

Evolved Gas Analysis
• Probably 75-85% of the
hyphenated techniques
• To quote a colleague at DuPont:
“TGA on its own is of limited utility”
• What comes when off helps define
what is happening.
Water?
Oil? Organics?
Polymer
burns?
Carbon

CO2?
