DIFFERENTIAL SCANNING CALORIMETER
Determine the amount of heat gained or lost as a result of phase transitions.
Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) measures energy changes in reactions including melting, transition, crystallisation, and glass transition temperature, and is mostly utilised in the polymer and pharmaceutical industries for research and development as well as quality control.
Heat-flux kinds are Rigaku’s DSC. Depending on the maximum temperature and sensitivity differential, there are a variety of models to choose from.
Depending on the measurement objective, the high-sensitivity type DSC8231 can be equipped with an LN2 cooling system or an automatic sample changer.
| Product name | DSC8231 |
| Technique | Differential scanning calorimetry |
| Benefit | Characterize and quantifies the energy of a reaction associated with phase changes |
| Technology | DSC is a thermal analysis technique in which the difference in the amount of heat required to increase the temperature of a sample and reference is measured as a function of temperature. |
| Core attributes | Using this technique, it is possible to observe fusion and crystallization events as well as glass transition temperatures and can be also used to study oxidation, as well as other chemical reactions. |
