Quasi-Isothermal Methods in Thermal Analysis
Compared with conventional non-isothermal analysis, quasi-isothermal methods have the advantages that (1) reaction temperatures can be determined accurately, (2) closelying reactions can easily be separated, and (3) accurate kinetic data can be determined for each intermediate reaction in a single run.
After a short description of the experimental technique, examples of the resolution obtained in quasi-isothermal thermogravimetric studies of thermal decompositions are discussed as well as the advantages obtained in quasi-isothermal dilatometric sintering studies of oxide compacts. Finally, it is demonstrated how kinetic data can be determined from the temperature and weight/length curves recorded in quasi-isothermal thermogravimetric and dilatometric studies.
