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…
