I am looking for a link or journal article which thoroughly analyses the calculated TGA curve with experimental TGA curve and would like to get clear about the importance of the comparison
While looking forward a meaningful comparison between the TGA experimental plot and a theoretical based prediction, it would be important to ensure proper calibration of the instrument and to avoid or limit possible experimental artifact contributions; what has been discussed elsewhere at this forum: https://www.researchgate.net/post/Can_TGA_show_negative_percentage_value https://www.researchgate.net/post/Unusual_weight_loss_in_cooling_cycle_of_Ceria_based_solution_in_TGA_analysis-any_thoughts https://www.researchgate.net/post/Can_anybody_know_about_the_change_in_the_TGA_Curve_in_the_region_surrounding_by_red_circle https://www.researchgate.net/post/How_can_I_interpret_many_oxidation_waves_on_amorphous_silicon_TGA https://www.researchgate.net/post/Unusual_weight_gain_loss_in_the_TG_thermogram_of_the_same_sample_on_different_TG_systems-any_thoughts/4 https://www.researchgate.net/post/What_are_the_scientific_reasons_behind_the_increase_in_mass_during_the_TGA_of_a_compound
