Temperature Sweep

DSC scans of this type are valuable for:

  • Designing adhesives and composite matrix resins
  • Confirming lot to lot reproducibility of compounded materials
  • Recording of thermodynamic fingerprint of a system
  • Understanding cure initiation temperature
  • Quantifying exothermic behavior

 

Cost: $150 per test, 3-Day Turnaround Time

When your test is complete, an output plot will be emailed to you as a Windows Metafile Paste in MS Word. Output Data: Onset Temp, Peak Exotherm Temp, Exotherm (Joules/Gram).

Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC)

DSC tests are commonly used for investigation, selection, comparison and end-use performance evaluation of materials in research, quality control and production applications.
Properties measured by DSC techniques include:

  • glass transitions
  • phase changes
  • melting
  • crystallization
  • percent cure
  • evaluation of cure kinetics
