TLDR
Several analytic instruments (like pyrolyzers, thermobalances, differential thermal analyzers or calorimeters, and sometimes even simply temperature-controlled reactors) can be on-line coupled to infrared or mass spectrometers to perform evolved gas analysis as mentioned in this paper.Abstract:
Several analytic instruments (like pyrolyzers, thermobalances, differential thermal analyzers or calorimeters, and sometimes even simply temperature-controlled reactors) can be on-line coupled to infrared or mass spectrometers to perform evolved gas analysis (EGA) because the possibility to on-line detect the nature of the released gases or vapors has become fundamental to prove a supposed reaction, either under isothermal or under heating conditions.read more

Cocaine profiling: Implementation of a predictive model by ATR-FTIR coupled with chemometrics in forensic chemistry.
TL;DR: A strategy based on Infrared Spectroscopy with Fourier Transformed and Attenuated Total Reflectance associated with chemometrics (ATR-FTIR) is proposed to identify the chemical "fingerprint" of cocaine samples, and is considered as a promising forensic tool in such situations involving profile comparisons and supporting forensic investigations.

A review on pyrolysis of biomass constituents: Mechanisms and composition of the products obtained from the conversion of cellulose, hemicelluloses and lignin
TL;DR: In this article, the main steps of pyrolysis and the composition of the products obtained from each constituent were synthesized and the results were used to predict the reactivity and energy content of these products and evaluate their potential use as biofuels in renewable applications.

Can nanoparticles really enhance thermal stability of polymers? Part I: An overview on thermal decomposition of addition polymers
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of different nanoparticles, their dispersion and the used modifiers, on polymer thermal stability was highlighted, highlighting the effect that hydrogen or covalent bonds can increase the adhesion of nanoparticles with the polymer matrix, resulting in higher dispersion degrees.

Pyrolysis of waste materials using TGA-MS and TGA-FTIR as complementary characterisation techniques
TL;DR: In this article, a comparison of the volatile species evolved by thermal degradation (TGA) and the subsequent characterisation by the MS and FTIR spectra was performed using a model based on first-order reactions with a distribution of the activation energies.
