Facility Features, Working Principle and Specifications

Features Working Principle

DSC is a thermal analytical technique that looks at how a material’s heat capacity (Cp) is changed by temperature. It measures the amount of heat released or absorbed by a material and hence DSC enables the measurements of the transition such as the glass transition, melting, and crystallization.

Heat Flux DSC

A technique in which the sample and reference crucible are heated uniformly (under the same conditions) with a definite amount of heat. The difference in temperature between the sample and the reference material gives the heat capacity of the sample and is measured as a function of time and temperature
