Flash DSC (Mettler Toledo, Flash DSC 1)

S Flash DSC-jem lahko dosežemo velike hitrosti segrevanja in ohlajanja, kar omogoča simulacijo predelave polimerov. Lahko določimo temperature steklastega prehoda, tališča, kristalizacije in hladne kristalizacije, entalpije tališča, kristalizacije in hladne kristalizacije. Temperaturno območje izvedbe meritev je od -35 °C do 300 °C. Velikost vzorca je od 10 – 1000 ng.
