The Flash DSC 2+ revolutionizes rapid-scanning DSC. The tool can analyze reorganization processes that were previously impossible to quantify. It is the perfect complement to traditional DSC. Today, rates of heating and cooling span more than 70 years.
The extremely high heating and cooling rates expand the investigation of thermally induced physical transitions and chemical processes, such as the crystallization and rearrangement of polymers.
- Ultra-high cooling rates – Permit the fabrication of materials with certain structural characteristics
- Ultra-high heating rates – Inhibit the processes of restructuring
- Wide temperature range – The temperature range for measurements is -95 to 1000 °C.
