DSC (Differential Scanning Calorimetry)

DMA (Dynamic Mechanical Analysis)

  • Materials Analysis and Testing: In-depth analysis of material composition and behavior.

  • Analytical Laboratories: Advanced equipment and techniques for precise measurements, including DMA (Dynamic Mechanical Analysis) and DSC (Differential Scanning Calorimetry).

  • Optical Testing: Evaluation of optical properties and performance.

  • Radiation Testing: Assessment of material response to radiation exposure.

  • Thermal Testing: Analysis of thermal properties and stability.

  • DMA is a powerful technique used to measure the viscoelastic properties of materials as a function of temperature, time, frequency, stress, and strain. This information is crucial for understanding how materials will behave under various conditions, making it invaluable for product development, quality control, and failure analysis.

  • At MTC, our DMA capabilities include:

  • Temperature Sweeps: Analyzing changes in material properties over a wide temperature range.

  • Frequency Sweeps: Examining the response of materials to varying frequencies of oscillation.

  • Creep and Stress Relaxation: Evaluating long-term deformation and recovery behavior.

  • DMA is particularly useful for characterizing polymers, composites, and other viscoelastic materials used in a wide range of industries, including automotive, aerospace, electronics, and medical devices.

  • DSC measures the heat flow into or out of a sample as a function of temperature or time. This provides valuable information about thermal transitions, such as melting, crystallization, and glass transitions, as well as other thermal events like curing reactions or oxidative degradation. 

  • Our DSC services include:

  • Heat Capacity Measurement: Determining the amount of heat required to change a material's temperature.

  • Purity Analysis: Assessing the purity of a sample by analyzing its melting behavior.

  • Thermal Stability Testing: Evaluating a material's resistance to degradation under elevated temperatures.

  • DSC is widely used in the pharmaceutical, polymer, food, and chemical industries for applications such as drug development, polymer characterization, quality control, and product stability testing.
