Applied Technical Services performs DSC polymer characterization analysis to determine several different factors of polymers. ATS’ certified chemists identify polymer thermal properties for a variety of uses and applications in our chemical analysis laboratories located in multiple locations throughout the United States.
Polymer Identification and Characterization
Identifying the thermal properties and characteristics of polymers is crucial to determining the proper manufacturing methods that will promote optimal product performance and lifespan. Due to the unique molecular structure and mass of polymer-based materials, polymer characterization is complex and can be performed in many different ways. DSC polymer characterization is very popular due to its effectiveness and versatility and is a commonly requested service at ATS.
Differential Scanning Calorimetry
DSC analysis, also known as differential scanning calorimetry analysis, is a popular method of determining a sample’s thermal properties by monitoring a material as it is exposed to controlled thermal changes. Like similar thermal analysis services, DSC polymer characterization analysis provides precise, highly accurate knowledge of a material’s composition. This analysis method is highly efficient and is regularly performed by Applied Technical Services’ chemical analysis department for many different purposes. ATS is capable of performing DSC analysis on a wide array of materials, including but not limited to:
- Plastics
- Polymers
- Composites
- Rubber
- Organic Materials
- Coatings
- Pharmaceuticals
- Chemicals
