Melting by temperature-modulated calorimetry

Theory and Practice of Modulated Temperature Differential Scanning Calorimetry

Investigation of the Freezing/Melting Process of Unsaturated Cement Paste by Low Temperature Calorimetry

Low temperature calorimetry (LTC) is usually applied to characterize the porosity of cement-based materials with a total water saturated state. By recording the heat flow of the sample at different testing temperatures, the ice content in the freezing and the melting process can be analyzed. In order to investigate the state of the water during the freezing/melting process of unsaturated porous...

Practical approach for measuring heat capacity of pharmaceutical crystals/glasses by modulated-temperature differential scanning calorimetry.

A practical protocol to obtain accurate heat capacity values of pharmaceutical compounds using modulated-temperature differential scanning calorimetry was established. Three pharmaceutical compounds, acetaminophen, indomethacin, and tri-O-methyl-β-cyclodextrin were used as model compounds. Powder samples did not produce reproducible results, presumably due to inclusion of gas in gap of powders ...

Separation of glass transition and crystallization in metallic glasses by temperature-modulated differential scanning calorimetry

The glass transition behaviour of the four metallic glasses La55Al25Ni20 , Zn65Mg35, and Nd60Fe30Al10 and Zr30Y30Al15Ni25 has been studied by temperature-modulated di€ erential scanning calorimetry (MDSC). It is clearly demonstrated that the glass transition can be separated from crystallization by MDSC. Two glass transitions have been observed for Zn65Mg35, Nd60Fe30Al10 and Zr30Y30Al15Ni25. Ow...
