Differential Scanning Calorimeter (DSC)
Differential Scanning Calorimetry, or DSC, is a thermal analysis technique that looks at how a material’s heat capacity (Cp) is changed by temperature. A sample of known mass is heated or cooled and the changes in its heat capacity are tracked as changes in the heat flow. The differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) is a fundamental tool in thermal analysis. It can be used in many industries, including pharmaceuticals, polymers, food, paper, printing, manufacturing,…
