The differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) instrument is used to observe the behavior of your sample with changing temperature and most commonly employed to determine important material physical properties such as melting temperature, sublimation temperature, and glass transition temperature. The Pyris 1 DSC (using aluminium pan) can operate from -20 C to 500 C with a scan rate of 0.1 to 200 C/min. For accurate analysis, 2 mg of samples are needed.
