Overview
In this informative video, Monika Schen from TA Instruments discusses the selection of sample pens for Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC). She explains the various effects measurable by DSC, including endothermic and exothermic reactions, and highlights its applications in characterizing materials like polymers and food. Monika details the importance of choosing the right type of sample pen—hermetic, closed crimped, or open—based on the sample’s properties and the desired measurements. The video also covers considerations for humidity and pressure when selecting pens for different materials. Viewers are encouraged to visit the website for more information on closing different types of pens.
