Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC)/ Differential Thermal Analysis (DTA)

DTA - Differential Thermal Analysis - & DSC - Differential Scanning Calorimetry - measure, respectively, the temperature difference and the heat flow difference between a sample and a reference material (subjected to the same temperature variation in a controlled atmosphere).
DTA detects any change in all categories of materials; DSC determines the temperature and heat of transformation.
SETARAM Instrumentation offers:
- the widest temperature range of all DTA systems (from –150°C to 2400°C°) using high-precision tri-couple probes;
- the most complete choice of DSCs (from Q&C system to the highest sensitivity DSC, and 3D-Sensor Inside DSC).
Properties measured by DTA / DSC include phase changes, glass transition, melting, purity, evaporation, sublimation, crystallization, pyrolysis, heat capacity, polymerization, denaturation / aggregation, compatibility, etc.

    Boston, MA - USA

    We will also be holding a workshop on November 4th entitled:

    An Introduction to Assesment of Batteries & Materials Using Calorimetry and Thermal Analysis

    A seminar designed to help understand the applications of calorimetry and thermal analysis in the assessment of batteries, cells and materials development. This includes everything from screening materials, to self discharge and of course abuse and overcharge testing.

    The agenda is a series of presentations that introduce the techniques, principles of operation and key measurement capabilities of different techniques as well as a review of data and publications in the recent months that describe experimental procedures being applied today throughout the battery world.
