How can I measured the sodium silicate solution (water glass) by thermal analysis TGA and DSC? Sodium Water glass solution very foaming.
I am not sure your question. what property of soldium silicate solution do you want to measure?
What are you interested in (heat capacity, phase transitions, glass transition, silicate content)?
If your concern is the foaming, i would suggesting trying different sample holders. You get really deep ones for TGA. You can also try using a hermetically sealed pan (at lower temperatures). Depends on what you want to measure!
You can try using hermetic pan but the amount of sample must be low. Otherwise sample pan could be burst.
Hi Bronislav,
Did you manage to measure the TGA of Water glass. I would really like to use your conclusions on it.
I'm also interested to see the results of water glass. Did you manage to measure it?
