A simple method for thermoanalysis of evolved gases.
Thermoanalytical processes involving the splitting-off of ammonia, water, halogens, inorganic acids or acid anhydrides can be simply observed by using a specimen-holder in which specific reactions with the decomposition products can be induced. A special glass or quartz double crucible can be used for this purpose; the products arising in the lower part of the crucible can be oxidized selectively with reagents placed in the upper part, or can be bound or transformed into other compounds. This double crucible is also suitable for studying reactions taking place between solid and gaseous substances.
