Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) is a useful technique to address each of the requirements above, as this tool technique possesses various powerful techniques to study the thermal properties of ...

AZoM talks to Juergen Blumm, Managing Director of Sales, Service and Marketing at NETZSCH, about the need for Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) in the thermal analysis of polymers. With NETZSCH ...

Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) is a thermal analyses method for determining how much energy a sample absorbs or emits as heat capacity. The phase diagram, entropy, enthalpy, and thermal ...

Semicrystalline polymers are known to have a rigid amorphous fraction (RAF), which is present at the interface of the amorphous phase and crystal due to the immobilization of a polymer chain caused by ...

The thermal transitions of confined polymers are important for the application of polymers in molecular scale devices and advanced nanotechnology. However, thermal transitions of ultrathin polymer ...

Spherulites are the main morphological form of polymers crystallized from melts. The phase transformation kinetics is of primary importance for technological profit, as the crystallization mechanism ...
