Differential Scanning Calorimeter (DSC Instrument)

Differential scanning calorimetry analysis provides insight into critical physical properties of materials by testing their response to heat. The heating of both a sample and reference material provides a validated relative temperature response and heat capacity. These furnace-based systems are perfect for studying unique phase-change properties, such as with liquid crystals, determining quantitative enthalpy of materials, or testing the elasticity of products exposed to extreme temperatures and/or pressures. Differential scanning calorimeters offer temperature ranges as low as -180C and as high as 2400C, with the highest available heating rate at 300 K/min for DSC analysis. The principle models utilize heat flux systems, corrosion-free silver furnaces, or cylindrical high-conductivity silver block units, among others. The customer should keep an eye out for a differential scanning calorimeter that suppresses or prevents overlapping vaporization and/or simulates realistic temperature and pressure conditions.

DescriptionThe high-pressure DSC for specific reactions

Numerous physical processes and chemical reactions are influenced by the surrounding gas pressure. In practise it is therefore often necessary to conduct DSC measurements under an increased pressure.
