Abstract

Temperature-modulated differential scanning calorimetry (TMDSC) is based on conventional DSC but with a sinusoidally modulated temperature path. Simulations of TMDSC signals were performed for Corning EAGLE XG glass over a wide range of modulation frequencies. Our results reveal that the frequency correction commonly used in the interpretation of TMDSC signals leads to a master nonreversing heat flow curve independent of modulation frequency, provided that sufficiently high frequencies are employed in the TMDSC measurement. A master reversing heat flow curve can also be generated through the frequency correction. The resulting glass transition temperature from the frequency corrected reversing heat flow is thereby shown to be independent of frequency.
