Metals & Alloys

In the field of metals and alloys, understanding thermal behavior such as melting, solidification (crystallization), and phase transitions is essential. DSC and DTA provide key data on thermal properties, aiding in material characterization and optimization of heat treatment processes. For amorphous alloys, DSC can determine glass transition and crystallization behaviors. TG-DSC/DTA can measure oxidation onset temperatures and weight changes due to oxidation, making it useful for evaluating oxidation resistance. TMA data, including expansion and shrinkage measurements, are used to calculate thermal expansion coefficients, contributing to product design and engineering.
