Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC)

A thermal analysis procedure that measures the rate of heat flow. DSC charts the difference between the rate of the test sample and that of a known reference material. This difference is useful in determining variations in composition and in measuring the degree of crystallinity and oxidation.
