Summary of Test Method4.1 This test method involves continuously monitoring thedifference in heat flow, or temperature between, a referencematerial and a test material when they a

18、re heated or cooled ata controlled rate through the glass transition region of the testmaterial and analyzing the resultant thermal curve to providethe glass transition temperature.5. Significance and Use5.1 Differential scanning calorimetry provides a rapid testmethod for determining changes in spe

19、cific heat capacity in ahomogeneous material or domain. The glass transition ismanifested as a step change in specific heat capacity. Foramorphous and semi-crystalline materials the determination ofthe glass transition temperature may lead to important infor-mation about their thermal history, proce

20、ssing conditions,stability of phases, and progress of chemical reactions.5.2 This test method is useful for research, quality control,and specification acceptance.6. Interferences6.1 Achange in heating rates and cooling rates can affect theresults. The presence of impurities will affect the transiti

21、on,particularly if an impurity tends to plasticize or form solidsolutions, or is miscible in the post-transition phase. If domainsize has an effect upon the detected transition temperature, thespecimens to be compared should be of the same domain size.6.2 In some cases the specimen may react with ai

22、r duringthe temperature program causing an incorrect transition to bemeasured. Whenever this effect may be present, the test shallbe run under either vacuum or an inert gas atmosphere. Sincesome materials degrade near the glass transition region, caremust be taken to distinguish between degradation

23、and glasstransition.6.3 Since milligram quantities of sample are used, it isessential to ensure that specimens are homogeneous andrepresentative, so that appropriate sampling techniques areused.7. Apparatus7.1 Differential Scanning CalorimeterThe essential in-strumentation required to provide the mi

24、nimum differentialscanning calorimetric capability for this method includes a testchamber composed of a furnace(s) to provide uniform con-trolled heating (cooling) of a specimen and reference to aconstant temperature or at a constant rate over the temperaturerange from 120 to 500C, a temperature sen

26、trollercapable of executing a specific temperature program by oper-ating the furnace(s) between selected temperature limits at arate of temperature change of up to 10C/min constant to60.5C/min.7.2 Recording Device, capable of recording and displayingany fraction of the heat flow signal (including no

Specimen Preparation8.1 Powders or GranulesAvoid grinding if a preliminarythermal cycle as outlined in 10.2 is not performed. Grinding,microtoming, or similar t

30、echniques for size reduction oftenintroduce thermal effects because of friction or orientation, orboth, and thereby change the thermal history of the specimen.8.2 Molded Parts or PelletsCut the samples with amicrotome, razor blade, paper punch, or cork borer (size No. 2or 3) to appropriate size in t

32、 pretreatment.9. Calibration9.1 Using the same heating rate, purge gas, and flow rate asthat to be used for analyzing the specimen, calibrate thetemperature axis of the instrument following the proceduregiven in Test Method E 967.10. Procedure10.1 Use a specimen mass appropriate for the material to

33、betested. In most cases a 10 to 40 mg mass is satisfactory. Anamount of reference material with a heat capacity closelymatched to that of the specimen may be used. An emptyspecimen pan may also be adequate.10.2 Perform two cycles of heating and controlled or notcontrolled cooling between the two cyc

34、les. The first cycle oftenis useful to provide thermal history information, the secondcycle provides information on the material with previousthermal history erased.NOTE 2Two cycles are not needed for elastomers, since the Tgisbelow ambient temperature.NOTE 3Other, preferably inert, gases may be use

35、d, and other heatingand cooling rates may be used, but must be reported.10.3 Hold temperature until the instrument is at equilibrium.10.4 Program cool at a rate of 10C/min to 100C.10.5 Hold temperature until the instrument is at equilibrium.10.6 Repeat heating at same rate as in 10.4, and record the

36、heating curve until all desired transitions have been completed.Other heating rates may be used but must be reported.10.7 Determine temperature TiTii, (see Fig. 1),where:Ti= inflection temperature, C,Tf= extrapolated onset temperature, C, andTm= midpoint temperature, C.10.8 Increasing the heating ra

37、te produces greater baselineshifts thereby improving detectability. In the case of DSC thesignal is directly proportional to the heating rate in heatcapacity measurements.NOTE 4The glass transition takes place over a temperature range andis known to be affected by time dependent phenomena, such as t

38、he rate ofheating (cooling). For these reasons, the establishment of a single numberfor the glass transition needs some explanation. Either Tfor Tmor Timaybe selected to represent the temperature range over which the glasstransition takes place. The particular temperature chosen must be agreedon by

39、all parties concerned. In selecting which value should be taken as,the reader may wish to consider the following:(1) Tmwas found to have higher precision than Tf(see 12.3).(2) The measurement of Tfis often easier for those who construct therespective tangents by hand.(3) Tm(preferred) or Tiis more l

40、ikely to agree with the measurementof Tgby other techniques since it is constructed closer to the middle of thetemperature range over which the glass transition occurs.(4) Tfmay be taken to more closely represent the onset of thetemperature range over which the glass transition occurs. Any compariso

41、nof glass transition temperatures should contain a statement of how the testwas run and how the value was obtained.11.
