In thermogravimetric analysis, however, mass changes and the associated temperature ranges are in the foreground.<br\/>These evaluation results form the basis for the subsequent database search.  <\/p><p><b>Select Relevant Material Properties<\/b><\/p><p>After evaluation, the properties to be used for comparison with existing materials are defined. In a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linseis.com\/en\/instruments\/tga-thermogravimetry\/\"><strong>TGA measurement<\/strong><\/a>, for example, a relative mass change and the temperature of the corresponding event can be selected.<br\/>For DSC measurements, peak temperatures, melting temperatures, or peak areas are available as comparison features.<br\/>The selection depends on the specific question. Not every thermal event is equally suitable for distinguishing a material.<br\/>By selectively combining several features, the search can be focused on those properties that are relevant for the current investigation.  <\/p><p><b>Consider Measurement Conditions<\/b><\/p><p>Thermal measurement results do not depend exclusively on the material under investigation. The experimental conditions can also influence the course of a measurement curve and the determined characteristic values.<br\/>These include, for example, the heating rate, the gas atmosphere, or other method-specific measurement parameters.<br\/>The Thermal Library allows such conditions to be considered as filters in the database search.<br\/>This is particularly relevant when comparing results from different measurements. For example, measurement data sets that were generated under similar experimental conditions can be preferred.<br\/>Nevertheless, a meaningful material comparison requires that the selected characteristic parameters and measurement conditions are technically compatible.  <\/p><p><b>Search Database for Matching Materials<\/b><\/p><p>After selecting the features, the database search is started.<br\/>The Thermal Library reconciles the selected properties with existing data sets. Both provided reference data and self-stored measurements can be considered.<br\/>The database can, for example, contain reference information on different raw materials, material qualities, production batches, or internal standards.<br\/>The comparison is thus not only made with generally available material data but can also draw on existing knowledge from the laboratory itself. <\/p><p><b>Evaluate and Compare Search Results<\/b><\/p><p>The results of the database search are displayed in an overview.<br\/>For each found data set, the Thermal Library shows a percentage match value.

The principle can be explained particularly clearly using differential scanning calorimetry and thermogravimetric analysis. <\/p><p><b>DSC: Thermal Transitions as Characteristic Features<\/b><\/p><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.linseis.com\/en\/instruments\/differential-scanning-calorimeter-dsc\/\"><strong>Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC)<\/strong><\/a> is used to investigate thermal transitions and reactions. These include, for example, melting and crystallization processes as well as glass transitions.<br\/>Many materials show characteristic thermal events under defined experimental conditions. The temperatures and enthalpies determined from these can provide important information about the material composition and state.<br\/>In the Thermal Library, corresponding evaluation results can be used as features for comparison with existing reference data.<br\/>For a polymer sample, for example, determined melting temperatures can be compared with stored reference materials. If several characteristic properties match, this can support the narrowing down of potential materials.<br\/>However, different polymers can exhibit similar thermal transitions. Crystallinity, additives, and thermal history also influence the measurement result. Therefore, the assignment should not be based solely on a single peak temperature.     <\/p><p><b>TGA: Using Mass Changes for Material Comparison<\/b><\/p><p>In <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linseis.com\/en\/instruments\/tga-thermogravimetry\/\"><strong>Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA)<\/strong><\/a>, the mass of a sample is continuously recorded during a defined temperature program.<br\/>Evaporation, decomposition, or chemical reactions can lead to characteristic mass changes.<br\/>In addition to the magnitude of the mass loss, the temperatures and temperature ranges in which a mass change occurs can provide important information.<br\/>The Thermal Library allows these properties to be used for comparison with existing material data.<br\/>A typical application example is the investigation of plastics with different filler contents. Here, characteristic decomposition ranges and the remaining residual mass can provide indications of differences between the samples.<br\/>In particular, the gas atmosphere and the heating rate must be considered, as they can influence the thermogravimetric behavior. <\/p><p><b>STA: Considering Multiple Measurement Signals Together<\/b><\/p><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.linseis.com\/en\/instruments\/thermal-analysis\/simultaneous-thermal-analyzer-tga-dsc\/\"><strong>Simultaneous Thermal Analysis (STA)<\/strong><\/a> combines thermogravimetric and calorimetric measurement information within a single experiment.<br\/>This provides both mass change data and information on thermal events.<br\/>For a material investigation, for example, a characteristic mass loss and a simultaneously occurring thermal event can be considered together.<br\/>The combination of different measurement information can help to characterize materials more
