Abstract
Emanation thermal analysis (ETA) [1–3] based on the measurement of the radon release from samples, is one of the methods used in the diffusion structure diagnostics of solids. Changes in surface morphology and microstructure of solids during their thermal treatments and changes due to chemical, mechanical or radiation interactions can be studied by the emanation thermal analysis method.
