L. Szirtes et al., THERMOANALYTICAL INVESTIGATION OF SEVERAL LAYERED ZIRCONIUM SALTS ANDTHEIR DERIVATIVES - PART II, JOURNAL OF THERMAL ANALYSIS AND CALORIMETRY, 53(3), 1998, pp. 905-921
The comparison of data of thermal analysis partly with XRD and/or anal
ytical results permits determination of the exact quantity of crystal
water of the investigated samples having quite different behaviour. Th
e compositions of the samples were determined from the results of ther
mal analysis. Furthermore, the data help elucidate the behaviour of va
rious crystalline materials and also their intercalates during heat tr
eatment.
