“…Nowadays, thermogravimetry (TG) has been well established as a common and rapid technique to study the thermal property for volatile chemicals [1], especially their vapour pressure curves and vaporization enthalpies (Δ H vap ). Using such a method, some studies have been carried out for the volatile chemicals: pharmaceuticals [2], UV absorbers [3], antioxidants [4], organometallic compounds [5] and biological agents [6]. In earlier years, TG was used in an isothermal condition, but more recently, an increasing temperature heating programme, which leads to faster data collection and reduces the number of samples required [7,8], has been used in TG.…”
