Abstract

Heating a substance causes a variety of changes. According to International confederation on thermal analysis (ICTA), a group of techniques are being used to correlate the temperature variation with some physical properties of the substance. Thermal analysis technique shows some curves which is a measure of property as a function of temperature and that is characteristic of a particular substance.
