Sample Preparation Simplified
A new packaging concept for pans is serving to simplify the preparation and archiving of test samples in differential calorimetry.
Until now, the preparation of sample pans for thermal analysis measurements had been rather cumbersome. Pans and lids had only been available packaged in bulk form in plastic containers. The plastic packaging containing the metal parts would become statically charged and adhere to one another, sometimes becoming very difficult to separate.…
How much heat is being transferred, and how fast?
The Flash method is a fast, non-contact, and efficient method for measuring the three fundamental thermophysical properties of thermal diffusivity, specific heat capacity, and thermal conductivity. A new Light Flash Apparatus, the LFA 467 HyperFlash from Netzsch, pushes the boundaries in measuring these properties.
With a single instrument setup – that is, without having to swap out either the detector or the furnace – the LFA 467 can carry out measurements…
