Temperatuurthermische

Temperatuurthermische is a neologism used in some interdisciplinary discussions to describe the study of how temperature interacts with thermochemical properties in materials and chemical systems. The term blends roots related to temperature and thermal processes with the concept of thermochemistry, aiming to foreground the coupling between thermal conditions and chemical energetics. It is not a widely standardized term in peer‑reviewed literature, and its precise definition varies by author or context.

In practical use, temperatuurthermische can denote analyses of temperature‑dependent reaction rates, phase stability, heat capacity, and thermal decomposition pathways, as well as how temperature influences catalytic activity and redox processes. It also encompasses the assessment of thermal windows for stability and safety in materials such as polymers, ceramics, and battery components.

Common methods associated with this concept include calorimetry, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), differential thermal analysis (DTA), as well as computational thermodynamics and kinetic modeling that incorporate temperature as a variable.

Applications are found in materials design, energy storage safety, catalysis research, polymer aging, and geochemical studies, where understanding temperature‑thermochemical coupling improves prediction of performance and failure modes.

Critics note that temperatuurthermische overlaps with established fields like thermochemistry, thermal analysis, and reaction kinetics, and call for clearer definitions and consistent usage. See also thermochemistry, thermodynamics, calorimetry, kinetics, phase transitions, materials science.
