The thermal behavior of the samples is studied by Thermogravimetry/Derivative Thermogravimetry (TG/DTG) and Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC). The results of AE, IV absorption Spectroscopy and XRD showed the presence of struvite (NH4Mg [PO4].6H2O), apatite, monohydrated calcium oxalate and dihydrated calcium oxalate. The TG and DSC curves allowed to classify the samples in two different groups: Group I show typical thermal behavior of struvite and Group II present a profile thermal analytical characteristic of a mixture of calcium oxalate.51-56porKidney stoneStruviteThermal AnalysisUrinary CalculiCharacterization of kidney stone by thermal analysisCaracterização de cálculos renais por análise térmicaArtigo10.26850/1678-4618EQJ.V34.1.2009.P51-562-s2.0-85116728347
