Thermal Analysis

Thermal Analysis

Thermal Analysis encompasses techniques that measure a sample’s physical or chemical properties as a function of temperature or time. It provides laboratories with accurate and reliable results for academic research and industrial development as well as for quality assurance and production.

METTLER TOLEDO’s Thermal Analysis Excellence line systems allow one to characterise sample materials across a wide temperature range.  Control all instruments from a single, powerful, easy-to-use software platform. Each instrument configuration delivers top-tier performance, providing complete confidence in your results.

Complete thermal analysis system

A complete thermal analysis system comprises of four different measurement techniques. Each characterises the sample in a different way.

The combination of all the results simplifies interpretation.

  • Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) or Flash DSC measure the heat flow to or from a sample.
  • Thermogravimetic Analysis (TGA) measures the change in weight of a sample as it is heated, cooled or held at constant temperature.
  • Simultaneous Thermal Analysis (TGA/DSC) enables the analysis of sample weight change and heat flow in one single experiment.
  • Thermomechnical Analysis (TMA) measures change in sample length.
  • Dynamic Mechanical Analyser (DMA) measures mechanical modulus.

DSC5+ - the new standard in thermal analysis

METTLER TOLEDO’s  DSC 5+ features the new, advanced MMS1 sensor with 136 thermocouples and two integrated heaters for power compensation mode.  Additionally, it employs heat flux technology, to provide superior performance and a more productive DSC.

  • The DSC5+ sensor, equipped with the FlexMode™ functionality, offers the flexibility to select between power compensation and heat flux mode, based on specific measurement requirements. 
  • It is designed for efficiency, featuring a high-capacity sample robot housing with up to 96 sample positions and interchangeable reference crucibles.  
  • The crucible chamber can be purged with inert gas to prevent unwanted reactions prior to measurement. 
  • Paired with the FlexCal™ adjustment and the STAR® software, the DSC5+ leverages AIWizard™ technology to detect, evaluate and identify all types of DSC effects. 
  • The DSC 5+ offers the flexibility to choose the operating temperature that precisely meets measurement requirements, making it the ideal solution for laboratories across various industries.
