TA Instruments Japan List of Products and Services

TA Instruments continues to be the leading company in the world of DSC with innovative and outstanding technology. It provides reliable data and enhances workflow and productivity in laboratories. Material property analysis is essential at all stages of product design, manufacturing, processing, and application. Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) is the most widely used thermal analysis instrument for evaluating the physical properties of a wide range of materials, including polymers, pharmaceuticals, food, biomaterials, organic compounds, inorganic compounds, and composites.

The DSC measurements conducted with microscope accessories provide insights through multiple applications to better understand the properties and behaviors of materials. It is possible to capture images related to crystallization and melting transitions, flow of materials above the glass transition and melting points, phase transitions, and volume dimensional changes associated with evaporation and sublimation. Visual observation of color changes and other appearance alterations is used in combination with DSC data to gain a deeper understanding of the material being analyzed.

Our company is engaged in the development and sales of various devices for thermal analysis, rheology, microcalorimetry, and mechanical analysis, boasting numerous installations worldwide. Currently, we are offering a "technical document" that provides a brief explanation of representative DSC, MDSC, DMA, etc., used for the property analysis of thermoplastic and thermosetting resins! [Overview of Contents] - The effect of thermal annealing on CFRTP (carbon fiber-reinforced thermoplastic resin) - Analysis of glass transition and curing using Modulated DSC - Determination of the glass transition temperature of resins through viscoelastic measurements - The impact of plasticizer addition on polyvinyl chloride *Please view the document by clicking the "Download" button.

We are explaining on YouTube about the selection of sample pans and sample preparation for effectively measuring with the TA Instruments Differential Scanning Calorimeter (DSC). < Differential Scanning Calorimeter DSC > It measures temperature transitions in materials along with associated thermal temperatures and heat flow. Common applications include research, quality control, and the investigation, selection, comparison, and performance evaluation of materials for manufacturing purposes. The characteristics measured by TA Instruments' DSC technology include glass transition, cold crystallization, phase changes, melting, crystallization, product stability, curing/curing reaction rates, and oxidation stability. The Tzero DSC technology recently developed by TA Instruments is an innovative and highly accurate method for measuring heat flow. It significantly improves baseline flatness, transition resolution, and sensitivity. With Tzero technology, direct measurement of heat capacity becomes possible, and Modulated DSC measurements are faster and more accurate.
