To explore the potential risk of usage on daily chemicals, the product which most contact for human directly, cosmetics, were selected as study object. In this study, common cosmetic materials, such as propylene glycol, ethanolamine, silicon dioxide, iron oxide, and copper oxide were discussed for potential hazard. According to results of differential scanning calorimetry experiments, the apparent activation energy and SADT were calculated out as 779.22 kJ mol-1 and 45°C, respectively.

AbstractExploratory experiments on effects from a phase transition are reported for a low-melting microcrystalline anthraquinone (N,N,N′,N′-tetraoctyl-2,6-diamino-9,10-anthraquinone or TODAQ). Data for the solid-liquid phase transition are obtained by differential scanning calorimetry and then compared to data obtained by voltammetry. In preliminary electrochemical measurements, microcrystal deposits on a basal plane pyrolytic graphite electrode are shown to undergo a solid-state 2-electron 2-proton reduction in contact to aqueous 0.1 M HClO4 with a midpoint potential Emid,solid = − 0.24 V vs. SCE. The reduction mechanism is proposed to be limited mainly by the triple phase boundary line and some transport of TODAQ molecules towards the electrode surface for both solid and melt. A change in the apparent activation energy for this reduction is observed at 69 °C, leading to an enhanced increase in reduction current with midpoint potential Emid,liquid = − 0.36 V vs. SCE. A change of TODAQ transport along the crystal surface for solid microcrystalline material (for the solid) to diffusion within molten microdroplets (for the liquid) is proposed. Upon cooling, a transition at 60 °C back to a higher apparent activation energy is seen consistent with re-solidification of the molten phase at the electrode surface. Differential scanning calorimetry data for solid TODAQ dry and for TODAQ in contact to aqueous 0.1 M HClO4 confirm these transitions.

Surface and volume crystallization of amorphous, melt-quenched (Ni50Zr50)99.9P0.1 alloy has been investigated by measurements of the temperature dependencies of the intensity of photostimulated exoelectron emission (EEE) and by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). A comparison of these dependencies enables one to assess the tendency of the investigated materials to premature surface crystallization. For the (Ni50Zr50)99.9P0.1 alloy the surface crystallization occurs at temperatures distinctly lower than that for the crystallization in bulk. The activation energy for the surface crystallization, determined by the Ozawa method, i.e. from the shift of EEE peak corresponding to the surface crystallization on changing the heating rate, is also much lower than that for the volume crystallization.

AbstractWe present an overview for the basic fundamental of thermal analysis, which is applicable for educational purposes, especially for lecturers at the universities, who may refer to the articles as the references to “teach” or to “lecture” to final year project students or young researchers who are working on their postgraduate projects. Description of basic instrumentation [i.e. differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetry (TGA)] covers from what we should know about the instrument, calibration, baseline and samples’ signal. We also provide the step-by-step guides for the estimation of the glass transition temperature after DSC as well as examples and exercises are included, which are applicable for teaching activities. Glass transition temperature is an important property for commercial application of a polymeric material, e.g. packaging, automotive, etc. TGA is also highlighted where the analysis gives important thermal degradation information of a material to avoid sample decomposition during the DSC measurement. The step-by-step guides of the estimation of the activation energy after TGA based on Hoffman’s Arrhenius-like relationship are also provided.

AbstractThe paper deals with the study of seven selected natural plant oils. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) and thermally stimulated discharge (TSD) methods were used. It has been found that most of the oils tested are in a glassy state at low temperature and have multiple transitions in the low temperature range. DSC shows complex melting-like processes or glass transition. For both DMA and TSD, the scaffold supportive method was used and found as a suitable one. DMA and TSD proved more sensitive than DSC and revealed at least two transitions between − 120 and − 40 °C. In the case of three oils (argan, avocado and sunflower), current reversal was observed by TSD; this symptom cannot be fully explained at the moment.

Polymeric packaging materials are one of the factors of environmental pollution. Reducing the environmental burden is possible by increasing the environmental friendliness of packaging materials. In this work, we study polymer films based on polyvinyl chloride (PVC) with a copolymer of 3-hydroxybutyrate with 3-hydroxyhexanoate P (3-GB) (3-GG) with different component ratios. The process of processing blends in the process of obtaining a packaging film is considered. The optical characteristics of the obtained films are determined. Thermal analysis of the obtained films was carried out using the differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), TGA, and thermomechanical analysis (TMA) methods. The degree of gelling of the resulting mixture was determined. It is shown that PHB has miscibility with PVC.

Thermal analysis is applied on aluminum alloys by researchers to investigate mainly phase transformations, while it is regularly used for quality control purposes in industry. Techniques like cooling curve analysis, differential thermal analysis, differential scanning calorimetry, and isothermal calorimetry are amongst those most frequently used by scientists and engineers. These techniques will be described, and a mathematical description of the results will be developed. State-of-the-art quantification methods applied on aluminum alloys will be presented and criticized based on specific examples taken from the literature.

The synthesis, characterization and thermal degradation of yttrium and lanthanum methanesulfonates is reported. The prepared salts were characterized by elemental analysis and infrared spectroscopy. The thermal degradation study was performed using thermogravimetry (TG), differential thermal analysis (DTA) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC).Using the thermogravimetric data, a kinetic study of the dehydration ofY and Lamethanesulfonates was performed employing the Coats-Redfern and Zsak?methods. It was verified that under heating, yttrium and lanthanum methanesulfonates undergo three main processes: dehydration, thermal degradation and oxide formation. Furthermore, depending on the nature of the atmosphere, i.e., inert or oxidant, the thermal degradation process could be endothermic (N2) or exothermic (air).

Several papers have been described on the thermal stability of the sweetener, C12H19Cl3O8 (Sucralose). Nevertheless no study using thermoanalytical techniques was found in the literature. Simultaneous thermogravimetry and differential thermal analysis (TG-DTA), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and infrared spectroscopy, have been used to study the thermal stability and thermal decomposition of sweetener.
