With the Netzsch Instruments Maia DSC 200 F3

Westmont IL, USA –  By applying a controlled temperature program (isothermal, heating or cooling at constant rates), phase changes can be characterized and/or the specific heat of a material can be determined. Used for thermal characterization of solids and liquids, including melting/crystallization behavior, decomposition behavior, purity determination, and specific heat. continue reading »
