6. MAT-THM-006 — Thermal, Thermophysical, Phase-Transition, Degradation and Thermal-Stability Characterization
Description
This Master Prompt provides an integrated framework for investigating how materials store, transfer, absorb, release and respond to thermal energy across relevant temperature, time and spatial scales. It encompasses differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), differential thermal analysis (DTA), simultaneous TG–DSC, thermal conductivity and diffusivity measurements, specific heat capacity, latent heat, enthalpy–temperature relationships, melting and solidification behavior, glass or other thermally activated transitions, thermal expansion, thermal cycling, thermal degradation, decomposition kinetics, oxidation or mass-change behavior, thermal stability and temperature-dependent material characterization.
