Versatile Differential Scanning Calorimeter for Analysis of Polymer
Melting Point and Phase Transition Temperature
Specification:
1. Display System
Equipped with an LCD liquid crystal display with blue backlight, it
presents abundant real-time information, including set temperature,
sample temperature, oxygen flow rate, nitrogen flow rate,
differential thermal signal, and the status of various
switches—ensuring comprehensive monitoring of test parameters.
2. Communication Interface
The USB communication interface boasts strong universality, stable
and uninterrupted communication, and supports an automatic
reconnection function—guaranteeing reliable data transmission
during long-duration testing processes.
3. Furnace Structure
- The furnace body adopts a compact design with stepless adjustable
heating rate, flexibly meeting diverse temperature-rise demands for
different test scenarios.
- The installation process is optimized with a full mechanical fixing
method, which completely eliminates the risk of colloid inside the
furnace interfering with the differential thermal
signal—effectively ensuring the accuracy of test data.
4. Dual Temperature Probe Design
This design ensures high repeatability of sample temperature
measurement, addressing the limitations of single-probe systems:
- A temperature probe mounted on the furnace wall is used for PID
control of the overall furnace temperature. However, thermal
inertia causes a certain deviation between the furnace wall
temperature and the actual sample temperature, and this deviation
varies with seasons.
- To resolve this issue, an additional temperature probe is installed
at the bottom of the sample to measure its real-time actual
temperature. Combined with our proprietary temperature control
technology, the furnace wall temperature is precisely regulated to
make the sample temperature reach the set value—significantly
reducing errors in both differential thermal signals and
temperature data.
5. Gas Atmosphere Control
A digital gas mass flow meter enables automatic switching between
two gas atmosphere flows. It features fast switching speed and
short stabilization time—maintaining stable and reliable atmosphere
conditions throughout the test.
6. Calibration & Cooling Functions
- Standard samples are provided to facilitate customers' calibration
of temperature coefficients, simplifying routine verification
operations.
- A dedicated furnace cooling interface is designed to support rapid
furnace cooling, shortening the interval between consecutive tests
and improving work efficiency.
7. Software Performance
The software adapts to computer screens of various resolutions,
automatically adjusting the curve display mode according to the
screen size. It is compatible with both laptops and desktops, and
supports operating systems such as Win2000, XP, VISTA, and WIN7.
It supports user-programmable protocols to realize automated test
procedures. The software offers dozens of instructions, allowing
users to flexibly combine and save instructions based on their
specific test steps—simplifying complex operations into one-key
operations.

Overview of DSC Technology
Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) is a classic thermal
analysis method that measures heat effects under programmable
temperature conditions. Currently, it has been extensively applied
in various scenarios across the material and chemical industries,
including research and development (R&D), process optimization,
quality control, and failure analysis.
By using the DSC method, researchers can study phase transitions of
inorganic materials, melting and crystallization processes of
polymers, polymorphism of drugs, and solid-liquid ratios of oils
and other food products. This technology is widely utilized in
fields involving plastics, rubber, coatings, food, pharmaceuticals,
biomaterials, inorganic materials, metal materials, and composite
materials.
