Google suggests this should be two words. — Paul G (talk) 05:49, 18 January 2020 (UTC)Reply

I find two uses, both in cited journal article titles. One is a misprint; in the journal itself the title uses “thermogravimetric”. In the other use, the title is a translation from Chinese (without any indication that it is a translation!). The term used in Chinese is 热重, which Google Translate translates in context as “thermogravimetric” (but when I put it in parentheses, out came the two-word translation ”thermal gravimetric”). Conclusion: the term is a rare misprint or mistranslation for “thermogravimetric”.  --Lambiam 10:35, 18 January 2020 (UTC)Reply
That puzzles me, because I found several pages of uses. I have cited this with three of them. Kiwima (talk) 22:59, 18 January 2020 (UTC)Reply
