DIFFERENTIAL SCANNING CALORIMETRY Typical DSC Applications Melting, crystallization Glass transition Oxidative stability Crystallinity of semicrystalline materials Solid-liquid ratio Specific heat capacity Cross-linking reaction Decomposition onset Solid-solid transition Phase diagrams Liquid crystal transition Eutectic purity Compatibility Scheme of a heat flow DSC cell Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) is the most widely used thermal analysis technique. Based on ISO 11357-1, heat flow DSC is a technique in which the difference between the heat flow rate into a sample pan and that...

DSC 204 F1 PhoenixExceeding Your Expectations Adaptable to Future Needs and Meeting a Wide Variety of Applications - Different Sensor Types The T-sensor is standard for most DSC applications. It offers a high level of calorimetric sensitivity along with an extremely short signal time constant and covers the complete temperature range of the DSC instrument. The p-sensor, in contrast, delivers a much higher output signal and is therefore able to detect even very small effects. Both sensors are rugged and durable. For condition-based maintenance, however, each sensor can be replaced and there...

A simplified and intuitively designed user interface; autonomous evaluation routines which can serve as a second opinion when assessing unknown samples; and a database system for identifying and verifying materials - all at your side at any time. AutoCalibration performs...

Elaborate Technology for Intracooler Air LN 2 τ-Sensor – Outstanding Sensitivity and High Resolution at the Same Time 200 The height-to-width ratio of an indium melting peak – or in other words, the indium response ratio – reflects both the sensitivity and the resolution of a sensor/pan pairing and is therefore an ideal criterion for evaluating sensor performance. The100 higher the value, the higher the ability to detect weak effects as well as to separate overlapped ones. In the present case,0the DSC 204 F1 Phoenix® equipped with a τ-sensor generates an indium response ratio of 50 100 150...

Optimum DSC Performance Superior Cell Design Each sensor of the DSC 204 F1 Phoenix ® can be removed and replaced with another. This ensures that the system is also well prepared to handle any future changes in application requirements. The sensor is installed into a cylindrical silver furnace with embedded heating coils. The high thermal diffusivity of the silver provides excellent heat distribution inside and thus homogeneous heating of the sensor, which is a “must” for stable baselines. The protective gas flow around the furnace effectively prevents frost or ice accumulation in the cell...

Unsurpassed Versatility Great Variety of Sample Pans The sample pan (or crucible) can have a significant influence on the measurement result and therefore has to be appropriate for the application. Both the material and the shape are important. For this reason, NETZSCH offers a multitude of different pans in various dimensions; these may be made of metal, graphite, glass or oxide ceramic and may also be open (with a lid that can just be laid upon them) or hermetically sealed. Additionally, in the NETZSCH portfolio are special lids for films and a reshaping tool for preparing SFI* crucibles,...

Automatic Sample Changer (ASC) Efficiency at Its Best Two interchangeable sample trays in microplate format with a total of 192 positions (96 each) can be quickly loaded and unloaded. Each sample tray can be filled with DSC pans of various types. The ASC gripper is able to manage them all. Its SafeTouch functionality ensures that every pan type is treated with the ideal contact force. The appropriate contact force is automatically deduced from a comprehensive database containing all pans and their properties (dimensions, material, pierced vs. hermetically sealed lids, etc.). Thus, the...

Gripper with piercing device and photo diode (left) for pan recognition “on the fly” Two interchangeable pan trays plus one fixed strip yield a total of 204 positions for sample and reference pans; these are displayed here with the tray cover partially opened. Each tray can carry sample and reference pans of different types. DSC 204 F1 Phoenix®-ASC Calibration Materials and Reference Pans Always Ready for Operation Clear Sample Tray Identification Keeping Out Environmental Influences An additional fixed strip with another 12 positions is reserved for calibration materials or reference pans....
