Ca(II) imprinted chitosan microspheres: An effective and green adsorbent for the removal of Cu(II), Cd(II) and Pb(II) from aqueous solutions (2014, methodology): “Thermo gravimetric analysis Thermal methods such as thermo gravimetry (TG) and differential thermo gravimetry (DTG) have emerged as powerful tools to monitor physical and chemical changes in both natural and synthetic polymers [28].”
Superabsorbent hydrogels based on polysaccharides for application in agriculture as soil conditioner and nutrient carrier: A review (2015, methodology): “…Calorimetry – DSC, and Differential Thermal Analysis – DTA) have been employed to evaluated, as pointed out above, the interactions between the SH network and the water, the thermal stability, and to determinate some properties (melting, T m ; and glass transition, T g ; temperatures) [38,39].”
