In smwindecker/deconvolve: Mixture Model for the Deconvolution of Thermal Decay Curves

Calculates the derivative rate of mass loss of thermogravimetric data

Description

This function processes thermogravimetric data by calculating the derivative of mass loss

Usage

process(data, init_mass, temp, mass_loss = NULL, mass = NULL, temp_units = "C")

Arguments

data	dataframe
init_mass	numeric value of initial sample mass in mg
temp	column name containing temperature values
mass_loss	column name containing mass loss values in mg
mass	column name containing mass values in mg
temp_units	specify units of temperature, default = Celsius. Can specify 'K' or 'Kelvin' if in Kelvin

Value

process list containing modified dataframe, initial mass of sample, and maximum and minimum temperature values

Examples

data(juncus)
tmp <- process(juncus, init_mass = 18.96,
               temp = 'temp_C', mass_loss = 'mass_loss')
