Thermal Analysis

Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC)

Measures the heat capacity and heat flow of materials over the range from -90° to 725°C.

Applications:

Degree of Crystallinity

Heat capacity

Thermal conductivity

Degree of cure

Crystallization kinetics

Oxidative Induction Time (OIT)

Modulated DSC for Overlapping Thermal Events

Work We've Done

Fiberglass Components

A client needed to determine the level of cure for several fiberglass components.

We were able to determine through Modulated DSC the degree of cure for the components.
