Jituo provides differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) testing services for the melting point and heat of fusion of compounds.

  • Mechanism: Destruction of crystal structure, requires heat absorption.
  • Characteristics: Obvious endothermic peak.
  • Indicators:
    • Tm: Peak or onset temperature
    • ΔHm: Area of the endothermic peak
  • Common R&D applications:
    • Controlling the crystallinity of polyolefins and EVA
    • Determining whether materials have crystallization defects or a wide distribution
    • Compatibility of blended systems (biphasic systems may show double melting peaks)
