DSC 404 F1 Pegasus®-Application examples

Measurement of specific heat of alumina (Al2O3)
The figure shows the specific heat measurement results of polycrystalline alumina samples in the temperature range of room temperature to 1600 ° C, and also provides the literature value curve of specific heat of pure alumina. It can be clearly seen that there is little difference between the literature values and the measured values, with a maximum deviation within the range of 2%, which fully demonstrates the DSC 404 F1 Pegasus®Excellent specific heat measurement accuracy.

Reproducibility testing of diopside glass powder
The figure shows the results of two tests on diopside glass powder. The glass transition occurs between 723 ° C and 745 ° C, recrystallization occurs at 883 ° C (starting point), and melting occurs at 1390 ° C (main peak temperature). Two separate tests were conducted, and the data obtained, including characteristic temperature and corresponding enthalpy calculations, were in good agreement. Moreover, there was almost no difference in the specific heat of the samples during the two tests. Does this indicate DSC 404 F1 Pegasus? Has excellent stability and test repeatability.


Measurement of Thermal Effects in Volcanic Rocks
Rock, as a general term for a type of natural material with a very complex chemical composition, is generally difficult to analyze. This type of material is usually a mixture of various oxides, sulfates, or carbonates. Volcanic rocks are usually formed by the solidification of molten magma, and their main components are various oxides. This example shows the DSC measurement results for a certain rock material. The glass transition occurs between 623 ° C and 655 ° C, with cold crystallization and melting peaks detected at 884 ° C and 1111 ° C, respectively (both peak temperatures taken). The exothermic enthalpy of cold crystallization is similar to the endothermic enthalpy of melting, indicating that the mixture is close to a completely amorphous material.

Phase Transformation of SAE 107 Steel Material
The figure shows the phase transition measurement of steel (SAE 107). Before and after 751 ° C, two overlapping phase transition processes occurred. The gradual increase in heat flux before 735 ° C was caused by the Curie transition (a change in ferromagnetic properties), while the high and sharp main peak was caused by a change in crystal structure (ferrite to austenite), with a corresponding enthalpy of heat absorption of 63 J/g. A two-step melting process can be observed at 1367 ° C (peak at 1395 ° C and 1471 ° C), with a melting enthalpy of 268 J/g.


Specific Heat Test of Molybdenum Metal
Using DSC 404 F1 Pegasus®The new low-temperature furnace body tests the specific heat of molybdenum metal from -100 ° C to 300 ° C, and the experiment is repeated three times. The dispersion of the three test results is very small, within 2%. The black curve in the figure represents the literature values of pure molybdenum metal from room temperature to 300 ° C, and the deviation between the test data and the literature values is less than 2%. This indicates that DSC 404 F1 Pegasus®Maintain good performance at low temperatures.


Kaolin quartz mixture testing
TM-DSC is commonly used for low-temperature testing of polymer materials, while DSC 404 F1 Pegasus®It is the world's first instrument to apply TM-DSC to high-temperature testing. The test results of kaolin quartz mixture are shown in the figure. The irreversible dehydration process and phase transition of kaolin can be observed on the DSC irreversible curve., On the DSC reversible curve, a phase transition effect of quartz at 573 ° C was observed.


Insulation Mineral Fiber Testing - TM-DSC
Temperature modulated DSC (TM-DSC) is a traditional tool commonly used for testing low-temperature applications of polymers. STA 449 F1 Jupiter®DSC 404 F1 Pegasus®It is the earliest instrument on the market to achieve high-temperature temperature modulation. The following figure shows the test results of insulating mineral fibers. In the DSC total heat flux curve, relaxation, oxidation, and glass transition overlap. Only from the DSC reversible heat flux curve obtained from separation can the glass transition of the sample be accurately analyzed.

Wide selection of crucibles: NETZSCH offers crucibles in various materials and sizes such as alumina, platinum, aluminum, graphite, zirconia, etc., which can meet almost all material testing and applications.
The instrument can be configured with dual furnace body or single furnace body+automatic sampler (ASC). The flexibility of module configuration and its integration with ASC can greatly save operation time and improve instrument utilization.
OTS®Oxygen absorbing accessories (optional) can further reduce the residual oxygen in the furnace, suitable for high-temperature testing of easily oxidizable samples.
Automatic Sample Injection System (ASC) can be used for batch routine testing. The instrument can work day and night, not only making full use of the instrument but also saving a lot of time. (For example, conducting calibration tests on weekends when there is no one present). The injection turntable can hold up to 20 samples and reference crucibles at a time, and work in a customized order. The testing atmosphere and cooling device control are both automatic. Individual test condition programming and macro calculations can be performed for each sample. An easy to understand operating interface can guide users to complete a series of test program edits, and during the experiment, they can also make changes to the running program by inserting new test programs into the already written program.
For very special samples or radioactive materials, DSC 404 F1 Pegasus®It can be installed in glove boxes or hot chambers, with electronic components located away from the measuring unit, and all data cables and supporting equipment can be connected to one lead.
