Structural characterization techniques of materials

Abstract

After twentieth century there was a lot of study in the understanding of the microstructure of materials, and it was only possible through the discovery of new techniques for characterization of materials. Today there are number of techniques to characterize samples such as x-ray diffraction, atomic absorption, thermal analysis, electron microscopy. This article presents scientific processes to characterize materials using modern technologies like such as: (I) thermogravimetry (TG/DTG), (ii) differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), (iii) differential thermal analysis (DTA), (iv) termomechanical analysis (TMA), (v)Non Destructive Techniques(NDT) and So on.
