Differential scanning calorimeter DSC 214 Polyma

laboratoryautomated

Easy-to-use, robust, precise, optimized for everyday use – these are the features of the innovative DSC 214 Polyma. The unique design of this instrument encompasses everything needed for successful DSC investigations – regardless of whether the user is a beginner or an experienced professional. Above all, it is the two new software developments that are setting new standards: AutoEvaluation and Identify. These have the potential to revolutionize DSC analysis. New all-inclusive 360° product package for the characterization of polymers Easier sample preparation than ever before Automated measurement and evaluation The First Classic Heat-Flux DSC for Fast Cooling Integrated in the DSC 214 Polyma is an oval furnace with a very low thermal mass (Arena® furnace), which allows for heating and cooling rates of up to 500 K/min – values previously unachievable with heat-flux DSCs. Temperature profiles can now be realized which are far closer to real processing conditions. Groundbreaking Sensor Technology The novel, patent-pending ring-shaped sensor is comprised of a core of nickel chromium and an outer ring of constantan. Both materials are diffusion-welded. This generates a defined, ring-shaped zone where the temperature under the crucible is recorded, resulting in a significantly higher reproducibility – especially in combination with the Concavus® crucibles. By combining a very low thermal mass furnace (Arena®) with a robust, sensitive sensor (ring-shaped sensor) and optimized crucibles (Concavus®), the DSC 214 Polyma achieves impressive performance data.
