Significance and Use4.1 This practice provides general guidelines for the prac-tice of thermogravimetry coupled with infrared spectrometricdetection and analysis (TGA/IR). This practice assu

22、mes thatthe thermogravimetry involved in the practice is proper. It isnot the intention of this practice to instruct the user on properthermogravimetric techniques. Please refer to Test MethodE1131 for more information.5. General TGA/IR Techniques5.1 Two different types of TGA/IR techniques are used

23、 toanalyze samples. These consist of discrete evolved gas trap-ping and use of a heated flowcell interface. It should be notedthat only the latter technique allows for the calculation of theevolved gas and functional group profiles.5.2 Evolved Gas Trapping TechniquesEvolved gas trap-ping techniques

24、are the least elaborate means for obtainingTGA/IR data. In these techniques, the evolved gas is collectedfrom the TGA furnace in discrete aliquots that are thenanalyzed. In use of such techniques, it is essential to monitorthe TGA weight loss curve to determine the time or tempera-ture at which the

25、effluent was captured. Vapor phase samplescan be trapped in a heated low-volume gas cell at the exit of theTGA, analyzed, then flushed out by the TGA effluent. Whenthe next aliquot of interest is in the gas cell, the flow is stoppedagain for analysis. This process can be made more convenientby desig

26、ning the TGA temperature profile such that thetemperature is held constant while a trapped sample is beinganalyzed (ramp-and-hold method). Alternatively, fractions canbe trapped in the condensed phase by passing the TGAeffluentthrough a solvent, a powdered solid, or a cold trap to yieldcondensed pha

27、se material for subsequent analysis (8). Infraredspectrometry is performed with either a monochromator, afilter spectrometer or a Fourier transform spectrometer. Seealso Practices E334 and E1252 for general techniques onmicroanalysis and qualitative practices.5.2.1 Since the analyte of interest is s

28、tatic when employingan evolved gas trapping technique, the spectrum can berecorded using a long integration time or increasing scanco-addition to improve the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). How-ever, in vapor phase evolved gas trapping, the sample integritycan be compromised by slow decomposition or by

29、 depositionon the cell walls. A spectrum should be obtained initiallywithin a short co-addition time to create a reference spectrumto ensure the integrity of the spectrum obtained after longco-addition.5.3 Evolved Gas Analysis Using a FlowcellAnother wayto examine the gases evolved during a TGA/IR e

30、xperiment isto use a specially designed flowcell. This flowcell is situated inthe IR beam of the infrared spectrometer. IR monochromatorsand filter spectrometers are typically used to monitor a specificfrequency range during the TGAexperiment. If a full spectrumis to be obtained with these IR device

31、s, the evolved gas istrapped via a stopped flow routine and the spectrometers arepermitted to scan the infrared spectrum. In contrast, the Fouriertransform IR spectrometer permits the acquisition of thecomplete IR spectrum in brief timeframes without impact uponthe typical TGA experiment, that is, c

32、ontinuous spectralcollection without interruption of evolved gas flow or sampleheating.5.3.1 In the typical TGA/IR experiment, the evolved gas ismonitored in real-time by the IR spectrometer. The temporalresolution required during aTGA/IR experiment is on the orderof 560 s/spectral data acquisition

33、event. If the full IRspectrum is to be acquired, the rapidity of the TGAexperimentrequires a Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) spectrometer tomaintain sufficient temporal resolution. Such instruments in-clude a computer that is capable of storing large amounts ofspectroscopic data for subsequent ev

34、aluation.5.3.2 Some spectrometer data systems may have limitedsoftware, or data storage capabilities. Such instrument systemsare capable of recording suitable spectra during the TGA/IRexperiment, but may not be able to calculate the evolved gasand functional group profiles.5.3.3 The flowcell is coup

35、led directly to the TGA via aheated transfer line. Evolved gas components are analyzed asthey emerge from the transfer line. This technique typicallyyields low microgram detection limits for most analytes (1).Instruments that include the IR spectrometer, data system, thethermogravimetric analyzer, h

36、eated transfer-line, and heatedflowcell are commercially available.5.3.4 It should be noted that any metal surface inside theTGA furnace, transfer line or flowcell assembly may reactwith, and sometimes destroy, specific classes of evolved gases,for example, amines. This can result in changes to the

37、chemicalnature of the evolved gas. Consequently, it is possible to fail toidentify the presence of such compound in the mixture. Thissituation can sometimes be identified by comparison of theTGA weight loss profile with the evolved gas profile.5.3.5 The infrared energy throughput of the flowcell sho

38、uldbe periodically monitored since this indicates the overallE2105 00 (2010)2condition of this assembly. It is important that all tests beconducted at a constant flowcell temperature because of theeffect of the emitted energy on the detector (see 6.3.1). It isrecommended that records be kept of the

39、interferogram signalstrength, single-beam energy response and the ratio of twosuccessive single-beam curves (as appropriate to the instru-ment used). For more information on such tests, refer toPractice E1421. If a mercury-cadmium-telluride (MCT) detec-tor is being employed, these tests will also re

40、veal degradationof performance due to loss of the Dewar vacuum and conse-quent buildup of ice on the detector face. In general, when aloss of transmitted energy greater than 10 % of the total energyis found, cleaning of the flowcell is recommended.5.3.6 Care must be taken to stabilize or, preferably

41、, removeinterfering spectral features that result from atmospheric ab-sorptions in the IR beam path of the spectrometer. Best resultswill be obtained by purging the entire optical path of thespectrometer with dry nitrogen gas. Alternatively, dry air canbe used as the spectrometer purge gas; however,

42、 this will leadto interferences in the regions of carbon dioxide absorption(2500 go 2200 cm1and 720 to 620 cm1) due to the presenceof carbon dioxide in air. Further, commercially-available airscrubbers, that remove both water vapor and carbon dioxide,provide adequate purging of the spectrometer. In

43、some instru-ments, the beam path is sealed in the presence of a desiccant,but interferences from both carbon dioxide and water vapor(1900 to 1400 cm1) may be found. Similarly, the TGAfurnace, the transfer line and the gas cell interface are purgedwith a gas that does not absorb infrared energy. Typi

44、cally, thisTGApurge gas is inert (nitrogen or helium) and has a flow ratefrom 10 to 200 mL/min. Occasionally, oxidizing or reducingatmospheres, that is, oxygen or hydrogen respectively, are usedwith the TGA to promote specific chemical reactions. Whenpreparing for a TGA/IR experiment, the atmosphere

45、s withinthe spectrometer and within the furnace and gas cell combina-tion must be allowed to stabilize before spectral data collectionand the thermal experiment commence to minimize spectralinterferences. Atmospheric stability for the experiment can bejudged by recording the single-beam energy respo

46、nse and theratio of two successive single-beam spectra over a discrete timeinterval.5.3.6.1 The spectral features of both carbon dioxide and,more importantly, water vapor depend upon the temperature atwhich they were measured. This can become an awkwardproblem in TGA/IR analysis, as many samples evo

47、lve thesegases as they are heated. It may be necessary to identify thesemolecules in the heated flowcell when there is a possiblebackground absorbance from molecules close to room tem-perature in the spectrometer and interface. It is particularlydifficult to use spectral subtraction techniques (see

48、PracticeE1252) to compensate for the presence of water vapor in thespectrum under these conditions. The significance of thisproblem is demonstrated by the attempt to identify the presenceof a trace amount of a carbonyl compound when spectralfeatures due to water vapor also are observed.6. Component

49、Design Considerations for TGA/IR Usinga Flowcell6.1 Transfer LineA transfer line from the TGA to theflowcell must present an inert, nonporous surface to theevolved gas. Evolved gas transfer lines must be heated totemperatures sufficient to prevent condensation of the evolvedgas species. Typically, the transfer line is constructed of anarrow-bore steel tube that has either a removable liner or iscoated internally with silica. The temperature of the transferline is normally held constant during an experiment at a levelchosen to avoid both condensation and degradation of
