Overview Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) is typically used during biopharmaceutical development to characterize a biomolecule through its thermal stability and unfolding profile. Here we demonstrate the suitability of DSC for studies of opaque solutions and slurries. Because of its universal indicator, heat, the technique can be applied to samples with magnetic or polystyrene beads,…
Overview It is now well established that the calendar life and cycle life of Li and Li-ion cells and batteries is highly dependent upon the secondary reactions that occur between the electrodes and the cell electrolyte. These reactions are often referred to as parasitic reactions, as they generally result in the loss of…

In this TA TechTip, we discuss best practices when creating a temperature ramp test on the Discovery DMA 850 Dynamic Mechanical Analyzer!
Overview Thermogravimetric Analysis, or TGA, is a powerful analytical tool for measuring changes in a sample’s mass as its environmental temperature shifts. When coupled with other instrumental techniques such as mass spectrometers and infrared spectrometers, chemical analysis of the evolved gases is achieved. These hyphenated techniques have a long history in thermal analysis.…
