The DSC 4000 offers dependable performance and quality results. This single-furnace, heat flux DSC is designed to run all your routine applications and includes an easy-to-load vertical furnace that is resistant to oxygen and chemical corrosion.

The DSC 4000 is a compact workhorse that performs like a champion. It’s the ideal solution for a wide range of routine applications in the academic, polymer and pharmaceutical markets.

Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) is a thermoanalytical technique in which the difference in the amount of heat required to increase the temperature of a sample and reference is measured as a function of temperature.

Graphs from differential scanning caloriemetry (DSC) can be used in the classification of melting intervals and phase transformations.

Typical applications for the DSC 4000

• QA/QC testing
• Undergraduate teaching practicals
• Evaluating additives for plastic lifetime optimization
• Ideal for Oxidation Induction Test (OIT)

Features and benefits

• Integrated mass flow controller for convenient gas control and switching
• Fast 45-position autosampler option for reliable unattended operation
• Portable cooling device (PCD) for cost-effective operation at low temperature
• Efficient, easy-to-clean nickel chromium sample plate
