Abstract
Abstract Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and differential thermal analysis (DTA) are effective analytical tools to characterize melting, crystallization, and mesomorphic transitions and to determine the corresponding enthalpy and entropy changes. The glass transition and other effects that show either changes in heat capacity or a latent heat are accessible too. The advantage of DSC and DTA compared to other calorimetric techniques lies in the broad dynamic range regarding heating and cooling rates, including isothermal and temperatureāmodulated operation. The broad dynamic range is especially of interest because many materials are commonly used or produced on far from equilibrium routes and transitions are strongly time (rate) dependent.
