12. Conclusion
This article describes the various aspects of thermogravimetric analysis, from the origins of the technique to its most recent developments. The fundamental aspect of thermogravimetric measurement makes it an essential analytical method for laboratories seeking to understand the thermal behavior of materials of all types. Its broad coverage, both in the temperature range and in gaseous environments, makes the technique attractive for a wide range of applications (metallurgy, refractory materials, biomass, catalysis, etc.). The development of numerous combinations of thermogravimetry with other characterization methods also makes it possible to obtain a large number of experimental data on a single sample.
The future of the thermogravimetric method lies in an increased number of couplings, and we are seeing the emergence of combinations of ATG with GC-MS, Raman and...
