Methodological information
==========================
A brief method description – what the data is, how and why it was collected or created, and how it was processed:

This file contains all the TGA data presented in this paper recorded as a time sequence of sample temperature, reference temperature and sample mass.

Rate information was obtained by taking the difference of consecutive datapoints and averaged over an appropriate period where the rate remains constant (typically a time window of 200 s)

Instruments, hardware and software used: 
Mettler Toledo TGA/DSC 1 with STARe software


Date(s) of data collection: 
Jul-Sep 2016
