DSC 214 Polyma (Netzsch)
The differential scanning calorimeter works on the basis of the heat-flux principle during thermal transformation.
Basic parameters and capabilities of the device:
- temperature range from -170 ° C * to 600 ° C
- heating / cooling rate: 0.001K / min to 500K / min (maximum heating / cooling rates depend on the temperature range)
- Indu index (height to width ratio):> 100 mW / K
- 20-position autosampler
- the ability to test samples weighing from 5-200 mg (depending on the nature of the test substance)
- enthalpy precision: ± 0.05% to ± 0.2% for most materials
- MDSC temperature modulation
* IC70 (-70°C to 600°C) – intracooler, liquid nitrogen (-170°C to 600°C) in the case of analysis, the cost of liquid nitrogen must be added.
Application:
Determination of the temperature and thermal effects of endo- and exothermic transformations of various types of chemical reactions and phase transformations. The processes that can be studied by DSC techniques are: melting, crystallization, evaporation, sublimation, phase equilibrium, glass and polymorphic transformations, formation of inclusion complexes, compound formation, dehydration, isomerization, adsorption and decomposition.
