Rigaku Corporation Differential Scanning Calorimeter DSC 8230/8270

A compact furnace features the fastest ever cooling rate. The DSC 8230 cools from 400° to 50° in less than 4 minutes (with a cooling fan unit). This rapid cooling ability—coupled with the quick gas substitution offered by the compact furnace—leads to a drastic reduction in the wait time between measurements, thus offering an effective operational environment for performing repetitive measurements quickly and efficiently. An automatic sample changer can be mounted. Design consideration is given also to possible installation in various surroundings. Thermal analysis is a branch of materials science where the physical and chemical properties of materials involved in a reaction or transition are studied as a function of temperature and time. Analysis techniques include thermogravimetric analysis (TG), differential thermal analysis (DTA), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermomechanical analysis (TMA). Rigaku's line of thermal analysis products meets diverse needs, ranging from quality control to material development. Its advanced technology and plentiful achievements have brought about an outstanding evolution in its thermal analysis line to create new applications in broad fields. Rigaku offers compact and high-performance thermal analysis equipment, such as dynamic thermogravimetric instruments, DSC tools with remarkable heating and cooling rates and thermomechanical analysis with high-precision measurement using the differential method.
