DSC-40AE

DSC-40BE

The DSC-40AE is a high-performance thermal analyzer based on the tower-type heat flux principle, designed to accurately measure heat flow differences between sample and reference materials under controlled temperature programming. Utilizing milligram-scale samples, it delivers precise measurements of key thermal properties, including specific heat capacity, glass transition temperature (Tg), melting point, enthalpy of fusion, reaction heat of thermosetting plastics, curing kinetics, and gel conversion rates.
