The Differential Thermal Analysis of Wood

Abstract: Differential thermal analysis was used to study the thermal brealtdown of balsam fir and its components in air from 50" to 420' C. In this range, the thermogram of balsam fir is simply a composite of the individual thermograms of the components of the wood, with little, if any, interaction between the components.

“…Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) is the study of the relationship between a sample's mass and temperature; differential thermal analysis (DTA) is the study of the energy change and temperature difference between a sample and an inert reference material, under identical heat conditions (Arseneau, 1961). These methods hve been used in the determination of the thermal stability of simple molecules (Santos et al, 2012;Tomasic et al, 2013).…”

“…To maintain the sample and reference material under similar conditions, both materials are embedded in a block of material with a large thermal mass. In theory, the temperature change in the sample should be proportional to the enthalpy change [14].…”

This method was applied on several wood species, e.g.…”
