“…Experimental conditions and their implications on TGA results have been discussed with respect to sample holders (115,169,326), sample size (115, 169), sample comminution (115,162,175,188), heating rate (115, 169), sample atmosphere (115,169), gas pressure (401), buoyancy (323), and convection (77,323,398). The use of derivative TGA to distinguish between evaporation and decomposition has been demonstrated by Adonvi (3).…”
