The versatile Premium DSC 204 F1 Phoenix® fascinates with its unique concept: all essential operational components are integrated into the instrument and optional add-ons can be installed anytime on site.
The DSC measuring cell consists of a cylindrical high-conductivity silver block with an embedded heating coil for broad thermal symmetry (3D symmetry) in the sample chamber, the cooling ports for liquid nitrogen or compressed air cooling and a cooling ring for connection of the intracooler (also with simultaneous liquid nitrogen cooling). The gas-tight construction and integrated mass flow controllers for the purge and protective gases allow coupling to an FTIR or MS for gas analysis.
Exchangeable sensors are tailored to their tasks:
With its disk-shaped silver carrier plate and supersensitive thermosensors of nickel-chromium constantan, the Tau-sensor offers a high level of calorimetric sensitivity along with extremely short signal time constants of only 0.6 seconds, which guarantees good separation of overlapping thermal effects.
The µ-sensor stands out for its high level of calorimetric sensitivity, never before achieved with a DSC. For example, it is extremely well suited for pharmaceutical applications with small sample weights.
Important hardware extensions like the automatic sample changer (ASC) for up to 64 sample and reference crucibles, the new UV-extension for photocalorimetry and software features such as BeFlat® for an optimized baseline or the optional temperature modulation of the DSC signal (TM-DSC) make the DSC 204 F1 Phoenix® the most versatile DSC system for R & D, QA, failure analysis and process optimization on the market today.

TCT 426 - Thermal Conductivity Tester: furnace/hot-wire method
The TCT 426 works according to the hot wire method and is especially designed for the investigation of refractory rock. The measuring cross, parallel wire, and T(R) methods can be used in the instrument. The TCT 426 is indispensable for the efficient use of energy in industrial kiln engineering with refractories.
The hot-wire method is an absolute method for direct determination of the thermal conductivity, based on the measurement of the temperature increase of a linear heat source/hot wire (cross-wire technique) or at a specific distance from a linear heat source (parallel-wire technique).
The hot wire and thermocouple are embedded between two test pieces, which make up the actual test assembly. The time-dependent temperature increase after the heating current is switched on is a measure of the thermal conductivity of the material being tested.
Another variation, the so-called "Platinum Resistance Thermometer Technique" or "T(R) Technique", is described in ASTM-C 1113. Here an integral temperature measurement is carried out over the entire length of the hot wire; i.e. the hot wire is both heat source and temperature sensor at the same time.
The TCT 426 thermal conductivity tester enables the use of all three of the methods described in easily interchangeable, pre-wired measuring frames.

The main advantage of light-curing systems is their fast reaction time. Monomer solutions which are mostly free of solvents can be cured within only a few seconds and already at low temperatures. A combination of thermal and light curing reactions is often applied to dual cure adhesives or paints.
The NETZSCH Photo-DSC 204 F1 Phoenix® works in the temperature range from
-100°C to 200°C. The instrument has a vacuum-tight measuring cell and the purge gas control is regulated by a mass flow controller (MFC).
For our Photo-DSC 204 F1 Phoenix®, most standard industry or laboratory lamps for cationic or radically curing material systems can be used. For the analysis of adhesives, we recommend the DELOLUX04, from the DELO company.
The modified automatic lid-lifting device of the DSC 204 F1 Phoenix® guarantees a defined distance between the two light conductors and the sample and reference.
This achieves high reproducibility of measurement results.
For your normal DSC analyses above 200°C, a retrofit of the standard lid-lifting device is possible, or the manual lid can also be used without problems.
For high sample throughput or for repeat measurements, use of our Automatic Sample Changer (ASC) for up to 64 samples is recommended.

The QuickLine™-50 instrument is a device specifically developed for measuring interface thermal resistance.
Heat transport across gaps is most frequently improved by the addition of a layer of conductive material that fills the crevices in between, and with that thermally bridges the gap. Heat transfer is then governed by the thermal conductivity of the material, the thickness of the layer, and the two interfaces at the boundaries of the layer. For most engineering applications it is extremely difficult to model this combination from its components, as exact figures for the boundary resistances are usually not known. Further aggravating this is the effect varying surface conditions can bring to the interface. For this reason it is becoming general practice to measure the combination that closely replicates actual use, and determine experimentally the interface impedance of the filler and the two interfaces combined.
* Thermal Interface Materials
* Fast Test Times
* RT to 150°C
