Adding Calibration Standards to TRIOS Software

Overview In this Tech Tip, we will show you how to add a calibration standard to TRIOS software. Calibrations are obtained by comparing the literature values of known standards to the measured ones in the calibration experiment. Standards’ melting, curie, Cp, and CTE values are used for different calibrations on thermal instruments. Here we will…

Preparing an Indium Sample for Cell Constant & Temperature Calibration

Overview In this Tech Tip, we will set up cell constant and temperature calibration on the Discovery DSC and prepare an indium sample for the calibration.

Selecting Experimental Parameters for Modulated DSC

Overview In this Tech Tip, we will give a general overview of the parameters you need to select when running a modulated differential scanning calorimetry experiment, also known as MDSC.
