Although DSC has been used extensively in the literature to measure the degree of cure and reaction kinetics, relatively little work has been performed to assess the limitations and accuracy of the DSC principle itself. The purpose of this paper is to examine two inherent limitations of DSC; ...
The Double-Furnace DSC Principle With the double-furnace DSC, the sample and the reference materials are placed in two independent but nearly identical furnaces. When an exothermic (energy released) or endothermic (energy absorbed) event occurs in the sample, power is either applied or removed ...

The guiding principle of MDSC is to apply two heating rates simultaneously and measure how they affect the rate of heat flow. The underlying or average heating rate provides the same information (Total Heat Flow) as standard DSC, while the modulated heating rate permits the measurement of both ...
