Applications of Differential Scanning Calorimetry

  • Chapter
Differential Scanning Calorimetry

Abstract

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. The work required to evaluate the measured curve may differ greatly from one case to another. This will become clear from the following text. It will also become obvious that an adequate evaluation may need more effort when the signal to noise ratio is low.
