Differential Scanning Calorimetry as a Tool for Quality Testing of Plastics

Article Preview

Abstract:

Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) is the most frequently used method from thermal analysis to characterize plastics and which can be applied not only in the R&D but also in the industrial praxis as input and output control. This paper deals with the most important DSC application which arises from results of applied and contractual research at Technical university of Liberec. In the paper are introduced examples of its utilization for plastics identification and characterization, for analysis influence of plastics processing process parameters on their quality, to describe crystallization kinetics and so on.
