XRD-DSC Plugin

User-friendly tool for simultaneous XRD-DSC measurement

• Representing Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) and XRD profiles against time and temperature
• Analysis of DSC profile, e.g. starting temperature of exo- and endothermic reactions, energies absorbed and released
• Visualize crystallographic phase change depending on time

XRD-DSC data display

The XRD Measurement plugin is capable of displaying XRD-DSC data, but the XRD-DSC plugin features more advanced functions, such as changing the temperature range or thinning data to display graphs.

Linking XRD data and DSC chart

This plugin can simultaneously visualize relationships between changes in an X-ray diffraction pattern and thermal changes in a DSC measurement. This plugin is designed to present a graph of diffraction pattern or X-ray intensity and the DSC chart at the same time, allowing users to determine the changes in the crystal structure of the material.

DSC analysis

The XRD-DSC plugin incorporates an automatic DSC chart analyzing feature, which was not available in earlier versions of Rigaku’s software. This feature facilitates the estimation of melting point and phase transition point, as well as endothermic/exothermic calorimetry of dissolution, solidification, etc.
