Sample Controlled Thermal Analysis: Origin, Goals, Multiple Forms, Applications and Future (Hot Topics in Thermal Analysis and Calorimetry, 3)

Sample Controlled Thermal Analysis gives a short presentation of the spirit and history of SCTA and then focuses on: basic SCTA techniques, applications of SCTA in kinetic studies and applications in the study of ceramics, adsorbents and catalysts. Finally the expected future development of SCTA is discussed.
This book is an invaluable reference for materials scientists, chemists, geologists, and engineers involved in the development of new materials, the manufacturing processes and quality control. It is also useful for research in solid state chemistry, materials science, materials in general, and analytical chemistry. Producers of thermoanalytical equipment and manufacturers of catalysts, technological ceramics and adsorbents for industrial or environment applications will find this an important resource.

"WOW. That was great....I cannot think of any two editors better qualified to write and edit this book than the pioneers of SCTA: Dr Ole T. Sørensen and Prof. Jean Rouquerol. With the support of enthusiastic contributing authors who are undebated experts in their fields, their work has resulted in an excellent compilation. I am sure it will be a great book."
