TGA can provide several types of information critical for catalysis: 1. Mass Loss Data: Indicates the presence of volatile components or decomposition products. 2. Thermal Events: Identifies endothermic or exothermic events related to phase transitions or chemical reactions. 3. Rate of Decomposition: Provides insights into the rate of decomposition and stability of the catalyst under different conditions. 4. Adsorption/Desorption Behavior: Helps in understanding the adsorption/desorption behavior of gases or vapors on the catalyst surface.
