We used thermal analysis to investigate the effects of temperature (20--300 °C) on the behaviour of acrylonitrile and methylvinylpyridine copolymers and determine the temperature ranges in which segmental mobility develops in them, as well as their glass transition temperatures. Data obtained via differential thermal analysis allowed us to compute activation energies for vitrification processes in copolymers of the series specified and to plot vitrification temperature as a function of copolymer composition. We used the method of increments to compute flexibility parameters for acrylonitrile and 2-methyl-5-vinylpyridine and analyse the effects of flexibility parameters on the manifestation of relaxation processes. The data obtained may be used to amend manufacturing parameters when developing chemisorptive filter materials based on the specified copolymer series.

Aim: To study the temperature stability of TGS doped with ZnSO4, CdCl2, BaCl2, and compare it with that of pure TGS. Objectives: Synthesizing pure and doped TGS and studying their temperature dependence using TGA, DTA, and DSC analysis. Methods: Slow cooling solution growth was used to grow single crystals of pure and doped TGS. The TGA, DTA and DSC analysis was conducted for determining the temperature stability. Results: The thermal analysis of pure and doped TGS shows that the doped samples show a similar dependence on temperature as pure TGS. The temperature of decomposition of pure and doped samples (BTGS, ZTGS, CdTGS) was 226.60°C, 228.38°C, 229.13°C, and 239.13°C respectively. The melting onset of these samples was 214.51°C, 216.04°C, 217.69°C and 216.04°C respectively. Conclusion: The study shows that doping TGS with the above three described materials did not alter their temperature stability considerably. It is a good result as doping TGS, for varying its characteristics like absorbance, reflectance, bandgap energy, etc., which did not alter its temperature stability. Therefore, TGS doped with the above three dopants can be used at the same temperature ranges as of pure TGS but with much-improved efficiency.

The frequency and temperature dependence of dielectric properties of CH3NH3PbI3 (MAPI) crystals have been studied and analyzed in connection with temperature-dependent structural studies. The obtained results bring arguments for the existence of ferroelectricity and aim to complete the current knowledge on the thermally activated conduction mechanisms, in dark equilibrium and in the presence of a small external a.c. electric field. The study correlates the frequency-dispersive dielectric spectra with the conduction mechanisms and their relaxation processes, as well as with the different transport regimes indicated by the Nyquist plots. The different energy barriers revealed by the impedance spectroscopy highlight the dominant transport mechanisms in different frequency and temperature ranges, being associated with the bulk of the grains, their boundaries, and/or the electrodes’ interfaces.

Thermal analysis was used for the thermal characterization of the coal samples. The experiments were performed to study the pyrolysis and gasification kinetics of typical Mongolian brown coals. Low rank coals from Shivee ovoo, Ulaan ovoo, Aduun chuluun and Baganuur deposits have been investigated. Coal samples were heated in the thermogravimetric apparatus under argon at a temperature ranges of 25-1020ºC with heating rates of 10, 20, 30 and 40ºC/min. Thermogravimetry (TG) and derivative thermogravimetry (DTG) were performed to measure weight changes and rates of weight losses used for calculating the kinetic parameters. The activation energy (Ea) was calculated from the experimental results by using an Arrhenius type kinetic model.

This paper presents the results of the differential thermal analysis of cement matrix samples taken from concrete panels with nominal dimensions of 2300 × 1300 × 150 mm after one-sided exposure to high temperatures. The panels were subjected to maximum nominal temperature loads of 550, 600, 800 and 1000 °C. Concrete was also taken from a reference panel (without temperature loading) and investigated. Five samples with a nominal thickness of 20 mm were taken for thermal analysis. They were cut from the central part of the panels using a diamond blade saw. The thermal analysis covered the effects of temperature load on the concrete to a depth of approximately 100 mm from the heated surface of the panel.

GeCu(6 nm)/Si(6 nm) bilayer recording thin film was deposited on nature oxidized silicon wafer and polycarbonate substrate by magnetron sputtering. The ZnS-SiO2 films were used as protective layers. We have studied the thermal property, crystallization mechanism, and recording characteristics of the GeCu/Si bilayer thin film. Thermal analysis shows that the GeCu/Si bilayer film has two reflectivity changes with the temperature ranges, 120 °C ~ 165 °C and 310 °C ~ 340 °C. The results of dynamic tests show that the optimum jitter values at recording speeds of 1X and 4X are 5.8% and 5.9%, respectively. The modulations at 1X and 4X recording speeds are all larger than 0.4.

Free radical polymerization of the resulting monomers methyl methacrylate (MMA), ethyl methacrylate (EMA), methylacrylate (MA) and ethylacrylate (EA) with 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) (in 1:1 mole ratio) were carried out using azobis(isoboutyronitrile) (AIBN) as initiator at the temperature ranges 60-70°C. The modification of polymers were carried out by 9-anthracenecarboxylic acid (9-ACA) via the esterification reaction between —OH of poly(HEMA) and —COOH of 9-ACA, in presence of N,N′-dicyclohexyl-carbodiimide (DCC), 4-(dimethylamino) pyridine (DMAP) and N,N-dimethyl formamid (DMF). It was found that the molar ratio acid/alcohol/catalysts= 0.02: 0.02: 0.02 and 0.002, optimal for preparation of the ester. As demonstrated by FT-IR,1H-NMR and dynamic mechanical thermal analysis (DMTA). The Tg value of methacrylate and acrylate copolymers containing 9-ACA groups was found to increase with incorporation of 9-ACA groups in polymer structures. The presence of 9-ACA groups in the polymer side chains created new polymers with novel modified properties that find some applications in polymer industry. These anthracenic factors could take part in cyclo addition reaction with other factors such as anhydrides and kinons.

Cut Fe 40 Ni 38 B 18 Mo 4 ribbons were annealed for two hours at various temperatures Ta between 400 and 540°C. All the ribbons were subjected to XRD, VSM (vibrating sample magnetometer) and ME (Mossbauer effect spectroscopy) investigations. A differential thermal analysis scan of an as-cast ribbon showed the presence of two exothermic peaks, the first beginning at 419.9°C and peaking at 429.7°C and the second beginning at 497.3°C and ending at 546.2°C. The XRD patterns of the ribbons showed the formation of FeNi 3 nanocrystallites in the lower T'a ribbons and (Fe, Ni, Mo) 23 B 6 crystallites in the ribbons annealed above 470°C. Different behaviors of the saturation magnetization were seen in the ribbons annealed between 400 and 450°C, between 450 and 490°C, and between 490 and 540°C. The ME spectra of the ribbons annealed in the three different temperature ranges also pointed to the presence of three crystalline Fe-compounds in these ranges. The XRD patterns and the coercivities (Hc) of the lower Ta ribbons point to the formation of nanocrystallites in these ribbons.
