BookDOI
Differential scanning calorimetry
TL;DR: Theoretical Fundamentals of Differential Scanning Calorimeters and Modes of Operation are studied, as well as applications of differential scanning calorimetry, and evaluation of the performance of a Differential scanning Calorimeter.
Book ChapterDOI
Applications of Differential Scanning Calorimetry
TL;DR: The output signal from a DSC, the heat flow rate as a function of temperature, and any derived quantity, such as the heat of transformation or reaction or any change of the heat capacity of the sample, may be used to solve many different problems.
Book ChapterDOI
Theoretical Fundamentals of Differential Scanning Calorimeters
TL;DR: In this article, a functional relation between the measured signal (T, Φ m) and the quantity searched for (the real heat flow rate Φ r consumed/produced by the sample) is discussed.
Book ChapterDOI
DSC Curves and Further Evaluations
TL;DR: A Scanning Calorimeter measures heat flow rates in dependence of temperature or time with modern computer techniques, which makes it possible to do even complicated evaluations of the just measured values in the background while the measurement runs.
Book ChapterDOI
The DSC Curve
TL;DR: The DSC curve (measured curve) offers quick information on the total measuring process (Fig. 5.1) as discussed by the authors, in addition to the usual measuring effects (C p changes, transitions, reactions) it can be seen whether the predetermined temperature range has been completely covered, whether disturbances of the apparatus (mechanical, electrical) occurred, whether there were irregularities or unusual shapes of the baseline, whether the characteristic temperatures and peak areas lie within the expected range.
