Abstract

This article summarizes two studies made in preparation for standards development, by differential scanning calorimetry, for instruments such as scanning calorimeters, differential thermal analyzers, differential mechanical analyzers, and related thermal analysis devices. The first was an extensive study of the variability of differential scanning calorimeters when used for determining transition temperatures and enthalpies. The second was an evaluation of calibration procedures recommended by the American Society of Testing and Materials. These studies are described in detail in National Bureau of Standards Special Publication 260-99.
