Thermal methods of analysis in the study of polymers

The book entitled Thermal methods of analysis in the study of polymers is structured in 3 chapters. Chapter one is entitled differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) in which we included introduction elements of thermodynamics in DSC the basics of differential scanning calorimetry Purity Determination of Low-Molecular-Mass Compounds by DSC Calibration of Differential Scanning Calorimeters Measurement of Heat Capacity Phase Transitions in Amorphous and Crystalline Polymers Fibers Films Thermosets Differential Photocalorimetry (DPC) Fast-Scan DSC Modulated Temperature Differential Scanning Calorimetry (MTDSC) How to Perform DSC Measurements and Instrumentation. The second chapter presents thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and chapter 3 presents thermal analysis methods applied to polymers.
