N2 - <p>This dataset contains data collected during investigation of hydrogels based on natural polymers (gelatin, sodium alginate), as part of the research project "Gelatin-alginate hydrogels for hard-to-heal wounds". The purpose of these experiments was to determine a material's thermal stability and its fraction of volatile components by monitoring the weight change that occurs as a sample is heated at a constant rate. All tests were performed on a TGA2 METTLER TOLEDO instrument. The STARe software was using for TGA treatment. The weight loss of the film/hydrogel sample was measured in a nitrogen atmosphere (N2, 50 ml/min) with an initial mass of about 10 mg. Thermogravimetric analysis samples were gradually heated from 25 °C to 500 °C at a heating rate of 10 °C per minute. TGA detects the temperature at which a material loses weight or does not lose weight. It creates the rate of change in weight as a function of time or temperature. The purpose of DTG analysis is to see the temperature at which the material loss is the most.</p>
