Differential Scanning Calorimetric (DSC) Analysis
Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) is a powerful technique to determine the heat flowing in-and-out of a material during a defined temperature & time profile. This heat and the temperatures & conditions at which it is manifested can provide information on:
- material properties: heat capacity,...
- physical transitions: phase transitions (e.g. melting, crystallization), glass transitions, polymorphic transitions,...
- chemical reactions & kinetics: polymerization, crosslinking, curing, oxidation,...
More specifically the following parameters can be determined:
- melting temperature & enthalpy: please see our offering "Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC): determination of melting point & enthalpy"
- crystallization temperature & enthalpy of crystallization, degree of crystallization
- glass transition temperature (& step height)
- specific heat capacity
- Oxidation Induction Time: please see our offering "Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC): determination of Oxidation Induction Time (OIT)"
