DIFFERENTIAL SCANNING CALORIMETER

The DSC Principle The Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) is the most popular thermal analysis technique to measure endothermic and exothermic transitions as a function of temperature. The instrument is used to characterize polymers, pharmaceuticals, foods/biologicals, organic chemicals and inorganics. Transitions measured include Tg, melting, crystallization, curing, cure kinetics, onset of oxidation and heat capacity.
