PE DSC-DMA

The DSC-8500 is a double-furnace automated multi-sample high performance differential scanning calorimeter. It features a second generation high speed DSC (HyperDSC) and is capable of: extremely fast scanning rates to 750°C/min, in-situ ballistic cooling 2100°C/min, with fast data readout rates (100 points/second) providing high data integrity. This allows for quick and accurate thermal characterization of heat capacity and phase transitions.  The DMA-8000 is a temperature-controlled dynamic mechanical analyzer. It features a 180° rotating analysis head enabling configuration for any test type and sample geometry. It couples a LN2 dewar with a standard furnace for temperature control between -190°C to 400°C. The system is capable of dynamic oscillations ranging from 0 to 600 Hz. And in addition to operation in dynamic mode, also features "Constant force (TMA) mode" vs. time or temperature. Combined, this system is capable of determining a material's dynamic modulus (storage, tan(d)), stress/strain, viscoelastic properties, and even expansion coefficient (softening/penetration).
