Abstract
ABSTRACTThe purpose of this work is to study precipitation kinetics in air-cooled aluminum alloy 339 by both differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and differential isothermal calorimetry (DIC) and thereby establish the equivalence of the two methods. To accomplish this, precipitation time constants, τ and activation energies, Eact, were determined by both techniques. Kissinger analysis of the DSC data yielded Eact and τ values. Using DIC we measured precipitation time constants, Arrhenius plots of which gave Eact. Activation energies and τ values from both methods agree provided DSC temperature scan rates are slow compared to the instrumental lag time. Thus, DSC and DIC have been shown to be equivalent (at least for this test case).
