Abstract
Thermal analysis by structural characterization (TASC) is a new thermal technique that is based on image analysis combined with hot-stage microscopy (HSM, also called thermomicroscopy). The image analysis algorithm is sensitive to any change in structure as seen by digital optical microscopy. A key feature of the algorithm is that it accounts for any sample movement. Due to thermal expansion of the sample or the sample chamber, there is, at high magnification, usually some sample displacement and this needs to be removed, so the measurement is purely one of structural change. HSM has a variety of uses but struggles with opaque samples (such as filled samples) and cannot routinely detect glass transitions. TASC, when used with an imposed structure such as an indentation, can routinely measure glass transition temperatures because, when the sample softens, the indentation disappears. This is true even when analyzing opaque samples. TASC can also be used to measure melting temperatures, transitions in small (microgram) samples, dissolution behavior, and heterogeneity.
1.1 The Development of Methods for Local Thermal Analysis
The first approach to local thermal analysis (LTA) was proposed by Hammiche et al. [], i.e., an order of magnitude worse than conventional thermal techniques . Furthermore, conventional temperature calibrants, such as indium, cannot be used because their high thermal conductivity gives rise to temperature gradients that they are so far removed from those experienced with organic samples that calibration curves obtained with these materials cannot be relied on when analyzing polymers, pharmaceuticals, etc. To overcome this difficulty, polymer calibrants are used and these are not primary standards.
A solution to the problems encountered by micro-/nano-TA has recently been proposed in the form of thermal analysis by structural characterization or TASC [.

Fig. 1.1
An illustration of a TASC experiment with a DSC measurement for comparison. The image a size 1 mm 1 mm is an indentation in a filled polystyrene sample prior to heating. Image b is the same area after heating to 160 C. The dashed line is the TASC curve and the solid line is a DSC experiment for the same sample (normalized to final value)
The TASC value is calculated by subtracting a selected area within the first image from the corresponding areas in each subsequent image; thus, any change in appearance will result in a change in the TASC curve. The algorithm is able to compensate for any movement by the sample; this is essential because heating a sample under high magnification is almost certain to result in shifts in its position due to thermal expansion by the sample and the sample chamber. These are not of interest so eliminating them is a requirement for the analysis to work. Clearly, the absolute values of the TASC calculations are dependent on the size of the area that is chosen so TASC curves are normalized to the highest value. Details of the algorithm can be found in []. The areas of application can be categorized as follows:
  • A general tool of measuring transition temperatures,
  • Local thermal analysis including surface analysis,
  • Measuring heterogeneity
These are considered below.
1.2 Measuring Transition Temperatures and Local Thermal Analysis

Fig. 1.2
Above left is a micrograph of sugar crystals; right are the TASC results for the crystals indicated by the colored circles . There is excellent agreement for the onset of the principle event. For the crystal highlighted by the blue circle, there is a suggestion of a preliminary process (further work would be needed to confirm this). This is illustrative of how TASC provides discrete information rather than the global data obtained by conventional methods
Particles made of amorphous materials also change shape upon being heated above their glass transition . This type of experiment complements traditional thermal measurements. Analyzing a mixture of particles of the order of tens of microns using, for example, DSC can provide information on the constituents and their relative amounts. However, it is only by making measurements on individual components that it can be established whether these material are within each particle or each particle is a different material. The components might only be a few micrograms and could not, therefore, be analyzed by conventional means. TASC provides an easy and convenient means of analyzing a large number of such small samples in a single experiment.
Another aspect of this type of localized measurement is that, in most cases, it is a form of surface analysis. Figure is a measurement made on the surface of a foodstuff coated in carnauba wax.
Fig 13 This is an example of a TASC measurement on the surface of a piece of - photo 3
Fig. 1.3
This is an example of a TASC measurement on the surface of a piece of candy. The surface is coated in carnauba wax, and its melting temperature can be determined as being 80 C
It might be argued that this measurement could be made using thermomechanical analysis in penetration mode, but it would usually not be possible to be sure whether the transition arose from the surface or somewhere deeper.
For complex systems, TASC has demonstrated the ability to detect hidden transitions that are often difficult to measure by conventional thermal methods such as DSC. Two examples of such cases are detection of the dissolution of crystalline material into matrices upon heating and the development of metastable polymorphs with rapid kinetic transformation during the thermal ramp. Alhijjaj and coworkers reported the use of TASC to study a series of complex pharmaceutical formulations containing three semicrystalline excipients (poly(ethylene glycol), poly(ethylene oxide), and d --tocopheryl polyethylene glycol succinate) with low melting points (3770 C) and a model drug (felodipine) with a melting point of 145 C [d, a clear plateau can be obtained implying the complete dissolution and melting of crystalline drug in the molten excipient matrices. This can be used as an evidence of the presence of crystalline drug in the original formulation which could not be detected by DSC.
