Increased pressure influences every physical change and chemical reaction where a volume change occurs. DSC measurements under pressure are frequently the only option for material testing, process development, or quality control.
- Shorter analysis time: Reactions are accelerated by increased temperature and pressure.
- Measurements under process conditions: Simulation of real-world reaction settings
- Better interpretation: The suppression of vaporization allows the effects to be separated.
