Thermogravimetric (TGA) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) analyses were carried out in a simultaneous TGA-DSC SDT Q600 (TA Instruments, New Castle, DE, USA). For the DSC, baseline was calibrated with indium (melting temperature of 156.6 °C and melting enthalpy of 28.47 J/g). Samples of 10 mg were encapsulated in standard aluminum pans. Thermograms were recorded at a heating rate of 5 °C/min over a range of 25–400 °C using Universal Analysis 2000© software.
