Abstract High‐temperature calorimetry (HTC) originated in the 20th century as a niche method to enable measurements not easily accomplished with acid solution calorimetry, combustion vapor pressure, or EMF methods. Over time, HTC has evolved into versatile approach accurately quantify formation, phase transition, surface and interfacial enthalpies of wide range materials including minerals refractory inorganic compounds. This evolution been result numerous adjustments experimental setups procedures, followed by rigorous testing. The commercial availability scientific success this technique have led an increase number laboratories applying HTC. However, knowledge acquired researchers over past 70 years is scattered throughout literature only available laboratory internal documentation personal experience. publication collaborative effort among several leading summarize unify current state‐of‐the‐art techniques procedures. text starts summarizing various HT that are commonly used for readers interest general. It then directed toward users includes brief section on data evaluation procedures well comprehensive compilation reference utilizing molten sodium molybdate lead borate solvents. Finally, experienced users, in‐depth discussion some common difficulties uncertainties presented.
