Linseis DSC (differential scanning calorimetry) instruments

Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) is a key technique for determining how materials behave in changing environments. Determining the enthalpy of a transition as the material is heated or cooled needs to be relative to the data which needs to be collected. Linseis offers a comprehensive range of thermal analysis instruments.

The model DSC 1000 and DSC 1000 HiRes offer solutions for temperatures up to 750°C and a range of options to configure these to specific applications. The thermopile sensor with 120 or 240 thermocouples produces high sensitivity and resolution. The optional 44/88 position sample robot, in combination with the optional automatic gas control and automatic evacuating system, enables long-term unattended operation.

The high-temperature DSC/DTA PT 1600 provides the scope to work on materials which are used in extreme and structural environments. Optional features include the ability to work under vacuum and various atmospheres. The DTA sensor is useful at high temperatures, where a qualitative enthalpy may be all that is required or possible to measure. In DSC mode, the specialist sensor enables to determine the heat capacity (C_p). The modular concept of the DSC and DTA systems allow the use of different furnaces with a temperature range from -150 up to 2400°C. The systems can also be coupled to an MS or FTIR.
