Influence of Crucible to Experimental Results in Differential Scanning Calculation

Differential scanning calculation (DSC) is a technique that under temperature control program, used to determine the relationship between the heat flow rate or power difference of samples and reference materials, and temperature or time under program control temperature. DSC has been widely used in the fields of material processing, chemistry, medicine, biochemistry, petroleum, aerospace, environmental protection, etc. Thermal analysis is an important method used in physical property analysis in raw material analysis to analyze the mineral composition and chemical composition of raw materials.


DSC is a calorimetric analysis method. Its measurement results are affected not only by material state, but also by factors such as experimental conditions. This paper studies the main factors affecting DSC measurement results and puts forward suggestions that should be considered in DSC measurement.


1.Experiment
Sample: copper alloy, ferroalloy, hydroxyapatite powder, biological glass, microcrystalline glass, calcium carbonate inorganic material, etc.
Atmosphere: Ar;
Reference material: Empty Alumina Crucible;
Heating range: Room temperature to 1450 ℃;
Heating rate: 10 ℃/min;
Model and origin of the instrument: STA 409 PC Germany Nechi;


In order to study the influence of the experimental crucible on the experimental results, the author tested the above materials separately to see what effect the alumina crucible will have on the experimental results.


The following figure shows the DSC and TG curves obtained from the experiment. Figure 1 shows the DSC and TG curves of glass-ceramics powder. It can be observed that the DSC curves have crystallization peaks and the corresponding TG curves have no change, which conform to crystallization kinetics of glass-ceramics. Figures 2 and 3 show the DSC and TG curves of copper and ferro alloy respectively, and there was an endothermic peak for both DSC curves, which was the melting endothermic peak. The corresponding TG curve rose, indicating a increase in sample mass, but the whole experiment was kept under protective atmosphere, it was impossible for the sample to increase its mass due to oxidation, so the only reason was the reaction between the sample and crucible. Figures 4, 5 and 6 show DSC and TG curves of drug powder, inorganic powder and biological glass powder respectively, showing a decrease in TG by various degrees, indicating that the sample was decomposed. The heating temperatures of various samples and the temperature at which the TG curves increase are listed in Table 1.

According to the analysis of the experimental results, it is believed that the alumina sample pan will react with some samples and cause distortion of the TG curve, thus affecting the experimental results. Since "fingerprint information" for thermal analysis of different substances might be required, so the requirements on the experimental conditions are even higher.

Acetamiprid is one of the safety Insecticide for agriculture

Insecticide acetamiprid  is an organic compound with the chemical formula C10H11ClN4. It is an odorless neonicotinoid insecticide produced under the trade names Assail, and Chipco by Aventis CropSciences. It is systemic and intended to control sucking insects (Lepidoptera, Thysanoptera, Hemiptera, mainly aphids) on crops such as leafy vegetables, citrus fruits, pome fruits, grapes, cotton, cole crops, and ornamental plants. It is also a key pesticide in commercial cherry farming due to its effectiveness against the larvae of the cherry fruit fly. Insecticide acetamiprid  is an insecticide belonging to the chloropyridinyl neonicotinoids, this family of insecticides was introduced in the early 1990s. This compound is an insecticide that is introduced for controlling pests, but also for domestic use to control fleas on cats and dogs. Mechanism of action: Insecticide acetamiprid  is a nicotine-like substance and reacts to the body in a similar way as nicotine. Nicotine is a n...

What is silicon carbide whiskers and its application

Silicon carbide whiskers are a kind of single-crystal fiber with a certain length-to-diameter ratio, which has very good high temperature resistance and high strength. It is mainly used in toughening applications where high temperature and high strength applications are required. Such as: aerospace materials, high-speed cutting tools. At present, it has a very high performance-price ratio. Silicon carbide whiskers are cubic whiskers, and diamonds belong to a crystal form. They are the whiskers with the highest hardness, the largest modulus, the highest tensile strength and the highest heat resistance temperature. It is both α-type and β-type, in which β-type performance is better than α-type and has higher hardness (Mohs hardness of 9.5 or more), better toughness and electrical conductivity, anti-wear, high temperature resistance, especially earthquake resistance Corrosion-resistant, radiation-resistant, has been applied to aircraft, missile casings and engines, high-temperature turbi...

We have already used titanium dioxide powder in our lives.

Titanium is a chemical element, chemical symbol Ti, atomic number 22, located in the fourth cycle of the chemical periodic table, group IVB. It is a silver-white transition metal characterized by light weight, high strength, metallic luster and resistance to wet chlorine gas. The most common compound of titanium is titanium dioxide, which can be used to make white pigments. In the past, people used to mine titanium ore, the main purpose is to obtain titanium dioxide. 1.The nature of titanium dioxide Titanium dioxide (chemical formula: TiO2) is a white or bulk amphoteric oxide with a molecular weight of 79.83. Titanium dioxide is a compound of titanium, a pure substance composed of two or more elements (different from elemental matter). A compound has certain properties, different from the elements or ions it contains, and other compounds. Properties of crystal form: TiO2 has three main crystal forms such as rutile type, anatase type and plate titanium type. Optical properties: Since T...
