Abstract
The lecture is concerned with the application of thermal analytic methods to problems in technical mineralogy. Examples for the characterization of clay raw materials (e.g. for ceramics), for the determination of sulphidic impurities in clays and for the hydrothermal synthesis of industrial minerals (zeolites, smectites) are given and discussed. The methods used were mainly differential thermal analysis, thermogravimetry and thermodilatometry.
