Simple diagram for Thermal Analysis
Thermal Analysis refers to a number of methods that measure change in any property of a system with respect to temperature, when it is subjected to a controlled temperature variation.
What is Thermal Analysis?
Thermo gravimetric analysis (TGA)- Monitoring the change of weight as a function of temperature.
Differential Thermal analysis (DTA)-Change in thermal energy as a function of temperature. (exo- or endothermic).
Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC)- Change in heat as a function of temperature.
4. Thermomechanical analysis (TMA)- Change of dimensions. There are other techniques such as Electrothermal analysis,
Thermoacoustimetry and so on
THERMAL ANALYSIS TECHENIQUES
TGA-DTGThe first derivative of TG (rate of weight change) as a function of temperature is called DTG, i.e., the rate of weight change (dW/dt) as a function of temperature. This facilitates clear pinpointing of maximum weight change. DTA: In this technique the difference in temp. (T) between the sample and an inert reference material is measured as a function of temperature.
Exotherm T > 0 Endotherm T < 0
DSC: In DSC instead of allowing a temperature difference to be developed, heat/energy is supplied to maintain same temperature of the sample and reference. EGA : It is nothing but the analysis of volatile products released on heating, analyzed generally through a QMS or IR. (called as hyphenated techniques, TG-MS etc).
Exo
Endo
Principle behind various TA methods
It is useful to examine the behaviour of a sample by more than one thermal method while heating the sample in a programmed way.TG and DTA- SimultaneousTG and EGA-Coupled technique (TG-MS, TG-IR).TG-DTG (no extra cost involved)
Cost effectiveness is also one consideration to use simultaneous thermal measurement.
Fig1.3a
Multiple thermal techniques
1. Determination of thermal constants,Heat of fusion, specific heat , freezing point and melting point.The MP of pure metals (Au, Pb, Sn etc) is often used for calibration of DTA/DSC. The area under a melting endotherm is proportional to the latent heat of fusion of the sample.
2. Phase changes and phase equilibriaSolid to liquid phase change or liquid to gaseous state.
3. Structural changesSolid-solid transitions where a change in crystal structure occurs, it could be exo-or endothermic.
4. Thermal stabilityOne can monitor the thermal stability of an oxide, particularly stability of a porous material.

1. A thermo balance should provide accurate weight of the sample as a function of temperature. (capacity upto 1g,
typical sample in mg). Its reproducibility should be very high and also highly sensitive.
2. It should operate over a wide temperature range, say from RT to 1000/1500 oC.
3. The design of thermo balance should be such that sample container is always located within a uniform hot zone inside the furnace.
4. The sample container should be such that it does not react with the sample at any given temperature.
5. The balance should not be subject to radiation or convection effects arising from the proximity of the furnace.
6. It will be advantageous if thermo balance can be coupled to a GC or IR or to QMS.
Requirements of a TG balance:
Null point balance: As weight change occurs, the balance beam starts to deviate from its normal position, a sensor detects the deviation and triggers the restoring force to bring the balance beam back to the null position. The restoring force is directly proportional to the weight change.
Deflection balance: When balance arm is deflected by a change in weight, the relative illumination of photocells from light source changes due to the movement of shutter attached to the balance beam, resulting in flow of compensating current through one of the pair of photocells.
The current produced is proportional to the change in sample weight and after amplification is passed to the coil thus restoring it to its original position. There are two types of deflection balances, (i) Beam type and (ii) Cantilever type.
Types of Balances

The current produced is proportional to the change in sample weight and after amplification is passed to the coil thus restoring it to its original position. There are two types of deflection balances, (i) Beam type and (ii) Cantilever type.
Types of Balances
1. Buoyancy effect of sample container
It is nothing but apparent gain in weight when an empty, thermally inert crucible is heated. It has three components;
(i) decreased buoyancy of atmosphere around the sample at higher temperatures;
(ii) the increased convection effect; and (iii) the possible effect of heat from the furnace on the balance itself.
Modern instruments take care of these factors. A blank run with an empty crucible is always preferable.
Archimedes principle : any object, when wholly or partially immersed in a fluid, is buoyed up by a force equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object
The density of gases decreases with increasing temperature :e.g. Air : 25°C 1.29 mg/ml
225°C 0.62 mg/ml425°C 0.41 mg/ml
Sources of error in Thermogravimetry
2. Furnace and temperature effectsHeat from the furnace may cause convection. Magnetic and inductive interaction between certain samples and winding of the furnace. Thermocouple calibration
3. Other effectsTurbulence in the gas flow. Temperature measurement effects. Placement of the thermocouple. Quantity of sample used for analysis.Packing of the sample Container materials. Mostly Pt, Alumina crucibles are used.Gas flow to evacuate the decomposition products.
Sources of Error in Thermogravimetry

Step-II CaC2O4 CaCo3 + COMW 128 100 28 Step-III CaCo3 CaO + CO2
MW 100 56 44
Applications of TGA
Ca, Sr and Ba are precipitated as monohydrated oxalates.In the first step, H2O is removed from all the three oxalates, while in the second carbonates are formed by losing CO. The third step, stable oxides are formed by losing CO2.
Applications of TGA in Quantitative analysis
Experimental conditions can alter the onset as well as the end of decomposition.
Shape/sharpness of curves change with heating rate.
Experimental conditions should be known for comparison of curves from different sources. Change of atmosphere influences the decomposition. Oxidation takes place in air, while decomposition takes place in its absence.
Factors affecting TGA curves
• High flow purge rates ? Not recommended, specially for vertical TGA balances due to more turbulence) :
• Better controlled atmosphere (inert) specially at higher temperatures
• Typical purge gas flow rate for small furnace : 60 ml/min for a vertical TGA , but can be increased up to 500 ml/min ( even 1000 ml/min ) in case of horizontal models, to rapidly purge the furnace without the use of vacuum.
GAS FLOW RATES
DTA: Gives information on heat change by measuring difference in temp. between sample and reference.DSC: Temperature of sample as well as reference is maintained same by supply of required heat to the sample/reference depending on exo- or endothermic change.
Peak areas: DTA: peak area (A) = K. H.m m- mass of sample, H- heat of reaction and K –constant
which depends upon sample geometry as well as thermal conductivity. K varies with the temperature, hence instrument has to be calibrated at each temperature.
DSC: Peak area can be calculated similar way as in DTA, however K is electrical conversion factor which does not change with temp for well designed equipment.

Organic Compound Identification Using Infrared
Spectroscopy
This exercise is intended to familiarize you with the identification of functional groups in organic compounds using infrared spectra. Before you can use this technique, you need to have an introduction to infrared spectroscopy and to what an IR spectrum is.
Infrared spectroscopy deals with the interaction of infrared light with matter. The energy of an infrared photon can be calculated using the Planck energy relation.The frequency, and speed of light, c, are related through the relation
E = h ν
Where h = 6.6 X 10-34 joules second and nu is the frequency of the photon
where c = 3.0 x 108 meter/second and l = wavelength for the light
These two equations can be used to identify a common spectroscopic unit called wavenumber, , which is the reciprocal of the wavelength.
E = h = h c ; E = h = hcν = wavenumber = has units of (cm-1)
You can see that both frequency and wavenumber are directly proportional to energy.Molecules are flexible, moving collections of atoms. The atoms in a molecule are constantly oscillating around average positions. Bond lengths and bond angles are continuously changing due to this vibration. A molecule absorbs infrared radiation when the vibration of the atoms in the molecule produces an oscillating electric field with the same frequency as the frequency of incident IR "light".
All of the motions can be described in terms of two types of molecular vibrations. One type of vibration, a stretch, produces a change of bond length. A stretch is a rhythmic movement along the line between the atoms so that the interatomic distance is either increasing or decreasing
The second type of vibration, a bend, results in a change in bond angle. These are also sometimes called scissoring, rocking, or "wig wag" motions
Note the high wavenumber (high energy) required to produce these motions. The bending motions are sometimes described as wagging or scissoring motions
Each of these two main types of vibration can have variations. A stretch can be symmetric or asymmetric. Bending can occur in the plane of the molecule or out of plane; it can be scissoring, like blades of a pair of scissors, or rocking, where two atoms move in the same direction.
Different stretching and bending vibrations can be visualized by considering the CH2 group in hydrocarbons. The arrows indicate the direction of motion. The stretching motions require more energy than the bending ones.
You can see that the lower wavenumber values are consistent with lower energy to cause these vibrations.A molecule absorbs a unique set of IR light frequencies. Its IR spectrum is often likened to a person's fingerprints. These frequencies match the natural vibrational modes of the molecule. A molecule absorbs only those frequencies of IR light that match vibrations that cause a change in the dipole moment of the molecule. Bonds in symmetric N2 and H2 molecules do not absorb IR because stretching does not change the dipole moment, and bending cannot occur with only 2 atoms in the molecule. Any individual bond in an organic molecule with symmetric structures and identical groups at each end of the bond will not absorb in the IR range. For example, in ethane, the bond between the carbon atoms does not absorb IR because there is a methyl group at each end of the bond. The C-H bonds within the methyl groups do absorb.
In a complicated molecule many fundamental vibrations are possible, but not all are observed. Some motions do not change the dipole moment for the molecule; some are so much alike that they coalesce into one band.Even though an IR spectrum is characteristic for an entire molecule, there are certain groups of atoms in a molecule that give rise to absorption bands at or near the same wavenumber, ,(frequency) regardless of the rest of the structure of the molecule. These persistent characteristic bands enable you to identify major structural features of the molecule after a quick inspection of the spectrum and the use of a correlation table. The correlation table is a listing of functional groups and their characteristic absorption frequencies.The infrared spectrum for a molecule is a graphical display. It shows the frequencies of IR radiation absorbed and the % of the incident light that passes through the molecule without being absorbed. The spectrum has two regions. The fingerprint region is unique for a molecule and the functional group region is similar for molecules with the same functional groups.
The nonlinear horizontal axis has units of wavenumbers. Each wavenumber value matches a particular frequency of infrared light. The vertical axis shows % transmitted light. At each frequency the % transmitted light is 100% for light that passes through the molecule with no interactions; it has a low value when the IR radiation interacts and excites the vibrations in the molecule.A portion of the spectrum where % transmittance drops to a low value then rises back to near 100% is called a "band". A band is associated with a particular vibration within the molecule. The width of a band is described as broad or narrow based on how large a range of frequencies it covers. The efficiencies for the different vibrations determine how "intense" or strong the absorption bands are. A band is described as strong, medium, or weak depending on its depth.In the hexane spectrum below the band for the CH stretch is strong and that for the CH bend is medium. The alkane, hexane (C6H14) gives an IR spectrum that has relatively few bands because there are only CH bonds that can stretch or bend. There are bands for CH stretches at about 3000 cm-1. The CH2 bend band appears at approximately 1450 cm-1 and the CH3 bend at about 1400 cm-1.
The spectrum also shows that shapes of bands can differ.
ProcedureEvery molecule will have its own characteristic spectrum. The bands that appear depend on the types of bonds and the structure of the molecule. Study the sample spectra below, noting similarities and differences, and relate these to structure and bonding within the molecules.The spectrum for the alkene, 1-hexene, C6H12, has few strong absorption
bands. The spectrum has the various CH stretch bands that all hydrocarbons show near 3000 cm-1. There is a weak alkene CH stretch above 3000 cm-1. This comes from the C&emdash;H bonds on carbons 1 and 2, the two carbons that are held together by the double bond. The strong CH stretch bands below 3000 cm-1 come from carbon-hydrogen bonds in the CH2 and CH3 groups. There is an out-of-plane CH bend for
the alkene in the range 1000-650 cm-1. There is also an alkene CC double bond stretch at about 1650 cm-1 .
The spectrum for cyclohexene, (C6H10) also has few strong bands. The main band is a strong CH stretch from the CH2 groups at about 3000 cm-1. The CH stretch for the alkene CH is, as always, to the left of 3000 cm-1. The CH2 bend appears at about 1450 cm-1. The other weaker bands in the range 1000-650 cm-1 are for the out of plane CH bending . There is a very weak alkene CC double bond stretch at about 1650 cm-1.
The IR spectrum for benzene, C6H6, has only four prominent bands because it is a very symmetric molecule. Every carbon has a single bond to a hydrogen. Each carbon is bonded to two other carbons and the carbon-carbon bonds are alike for all six carbons. The molecule is planar. The aromatic CH stretch appears at 3100-3000 cm-1 There are aromatic CC stretch bands (for the carbon-carbon bonds in the aromatic ring) at about 1500 cm-1. Two bands are caused by bending motions involving carbon-hydrogen bonds. The bands for CH bends appear at approximately 1000 cm-1 for the in-plane bends and at about 675 cm-1 for the out-of-plane bend.
The IR spectrum for the alcohol, ethanol (CH3CH2OH), is more complicated. It has a CH stretch, an OH stretch, a CO stretch and various bending vibrations. The important point to learn here is that no matter what alcohol molecule you deal with, the OH stretch will appear as a broad band at approximately 3300-3500 cm-1. Likewise the CH stretch still appears at about 3000 cm-1.
The spectrum for the aldehyde, octanal (CH3(CH2)6CHO), is shown here. The most
important features of the spectrum are carbonyl CO stretch near 1700 cm-1 and the CH stretch at about 3000 cm-1. If you see an IR spectrum with an intense strong band near 1700 cm-1 and the compound contains oxygen, the molecule most likely contains a carbonyl group,
The spectrum for the ketone, 2-pentanone, appears below. It also has a characteristic carbonyl band at 1700 cm-1. The CH stretch still appears at about 3000 cm-1, and the CH2 bend shows up at approximately 1400 cm-1. You can see the strong carbonyl CO stretch at approximately 1700 cm-1. You can also see that this spectrum is different from the spectrum for octanal. At this point in your study of IR spectroscopy, you can't tell which compound is an aldehyde and which is a ketone. You can tell that both octanal and a 2-pentanone contain C-H bonds and a carbonyl group.
Carboxylic acids have spectra that are even more involved. They typically have three bands caused by bonds in the COOH functional group. The band near 1700 cm-1 is due to the CO double bond. The broad band centered in the range 2700-3300 cm-1 is caused by the presence of the OH and a band near 1400 cm-1 comes from the CO single bond . The spectrum for the carboxylic acid, diphenylacetic acid, appears below. Although the aromatic CH bands complicate the spectrum, you can still see the broad OH stretch between 2700-3300 cm-1. It overlaps the CH stretch which appears near 3000 cm-1. A strong carbonyl CO stretch band exists near 1700 cm-1. The CO single bond stretch shows up near 1200 cm-1.
The spectrum for 1-bromobutane, C4H9Br, is shown here. This is
relatively simple because there are only CH single bonds and the CBr bond. The CH stretch still appears at about 3000 cm-1. The CH2 bend
shows up near 1400 cm-1, and you can see the CBr stretch band at approximately 700 cm-1.
IR spectra can be used to identify molecules by recording the spectrum for an unknown and comparing this to a library or data base of spectra of known compounds. Computerized spectra data bases and digitized spectra are used routinely in this way in research, medicine, criminology, and a number of other fields.In this exercise you will try to identify the outstanding bands characteristic of certain bonds and functional groups in the spectra you examine. You are certainly not expected to identify all the absorption bands in each IR spectrum at this point in your work. When you analyze the spectra, it is easier if you follow a series of steps in examining each spectrum. 1. Look first for the carbonyl C::O band. Look for a strong band at 1820-1660 cm-1. This band is usually the most intense absorption band in a spectrum. It will have a medium width. If you see the carbonyl band, look for other bands associated with functional groups that contain the carbonyl by going to step 2. If no C::O band is present, check for alcohols and go to step 3.
ACID Look for indications that an O-H is also present. It has a broad absorption near 3300-2500 cm-1. This actually will overlap the C-H stretch. There will also be a C-O single bond band near 1100-1300 cm-1. Look for the carbonyl band near 1725-1700 cm-1.
ESTER Look for C-O absorption of medium intensity near 1300-1000 cm-1. There will be no O-H band.
ALDEHYDE Look for aldehyde type C-H absorption bands. These are two weak absorptions to the right of the C-H stretch near 2850 cm-1 and 2750 cm-1 and are caused by the C-H bond that is part of the CHO aldehyde functional group. Look for the carbonyl band around 1740-1720 cm-1.
KETONE The weak aldehyde CH absorption bands will be absent. Look for the carbonyl CO band around 1725-1705 cm-1.
2. If a C::O is present you want to determine if it is part of an acid, an ester, or an aldehyde or ketone. At this time you may not be able to distinguish aldehyde from ketone and you will not be asked to do so.
ALCOHOL Look for the broad OH band near 3600-3300 cm-1 and a C-O absorption band near 1300-1000 cm-1.
ALKENE Look for weak absorption near 1650 cm-1 for a double bond. There will be a CH stretch band near 3000 cm-1.
AROMATIC Look for the benzene, C::C, double bonds which appear as medium to strong absorptions in the region 1650-1450 cm-1. The CH stretch band is much weaker than in alkenes.
3. If no carbonyl band appears in the spectrum, look for an alcohol O-H band.
ALCOHOLLook for the broad OH band near 3600-3300 cm-1 and a C-O absorption band near 1300-1000 cm-1.
4.. If no carbonyl bands and no O-H bands are in the spectrum, check for double bonds, C::C, from an aromatic or an alkene.
5. If none of the previous groups can be identified, you may have an alkane.
ALKANEThe main absorption will be the C-H stretch near 3000 cm-1. The spectrum will be simple with another band near 1450 cm-1.
6. If the spectrum still cannot be assigned you may have an alkyl bromide.
ALKYL BROMIDE
Look for the C-H stretch and a relatively simple spectrum with an absorption to the right of 667 cm-1.
Each of these two main types of vibration can have variations. A stretch can be symmetric or asymmetric. Bending can occur in the plane of the molecule or out of plane; it can be scissoring, like blades of a pair of scissors, or rocking, where two atoms move in the same direction.
Different stretching and bending vibrations can be visualized by considering the CH2 group in hydrocarbons. The arrows indicate the direction of motion. The stretching motions require more energy than the bending ones.
This exercise is intended to familiarize you with the identification of functional groups in organic compounds using infrared spectra. Before you can use this technique, you need to have an introduction to infrared spectroscopy and to what an IR spectrum is.
