The advent of chip calorimetry has enabled an unprecedented extension of the capability of differential scanning calorimetry to explore new domains of materials behavior. In this paper, we highlight some of our recent work: the application of heating and cooling rates above 104 K/s allows for the clear determination of the glass transition temperature, Tg, in systems where Tg and the onset temperature for crystallization, Tx, overlap; the evaluation of the delay time for crystal nucleation; the discovery of new polyamorphous materials; and the in-situ formation of glass in liquid crystals. From these application examples, it is evident that chip calorimetry has the potential to reveal new reaction and transformation behavior and to develop a new understanding.

In The Beginning

In situ synchrotron diffraction experiments were performed during Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) of AS31, AS33 and AS35 alloys. The samples were encapsulated in stainless steel crucibles during the measurement using an empty crucible as the reference. The samples were heated up to 680°C, melted and solidified in the beginning of the experiment in order to fill the crucible. This short cycle was followed by three subsequent cycles between 400°C and 680°C with 5, 10 and 20 K/min heating and cooling rates with 5 min of holding time in the molten state. The diffraction patterns were recorded every 6 s during the DSC program by a Perkin-Elmer XRD 1622 Flatpanel detector including an acquisition time of 3 s and the collection of reference images. The endothermic and exothermic peaks are in correlation with the dissolution and formation of new diffraction patterns, respectively. During cooling from the liquid state, first, α-Mg dendrites solidify, followed by the formation of Mg2Si and Mg17Al12 intermetallics. The results are correlated with those obtained by thermodynamic simulations performed with the software Pandat.

Dsc Method

Polypropylene is a thermoplastic polymer, widely employed by converter industries to produce different plastic objects. In order to control and optimize the final properties of the polypropylene material, the evaluation of transition temperatures and enthalpies by Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) has a very important role. Therefore, it is fundamental to know how the analytical conditions influence the results. In this study heating and cooling rates, 10°C/min and 20°C/min, and two different rates of nitrogen flow, 20mL/min and 50mL/min were investigated. It was concluded that thermal properties are influenced by rates of heating and rates of nitrogen flow. The best precision was obtained with the low heating rate, 10°C/min, and high flow rate, 50mL/min. These conditions are being used with the DSC method for polyolefin quality control and material characterization.

Montmorillonite Nanocomposites

Polyethylene/montmorillonite (PE/MMT) nanocomposites were prepared by in situ polymerization. The crystallization behavior of PE/MMT nanocomposites at different MMT concentrations (from 0.1 to 1.2 wt %) were investigated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The equilibrium melting points increase by the addition of MMT. The crystallization rates of PE/MMT nanocomposites are faster than those of pure PE. The addition of MMT facilitated the crystallization of PE, with the MMT functioning as a heterogeneous nucleating agent at lower content; at higher concentrations, however, the physical hindrance of the MMT layers to the motion of PE chains retarded the crystallization process.
