How it works?
The instrument creates a highly adiabatic testing environment, ensuring precise monitoring of the thermal decomposition behavior of chemical samples during the heating process without any external heat exchange interference. During the test, the adiabatic calorimeter can record key parameters such as sample temperature, pressure changes, and heat release rate in real-time. These data are crucial for assessing the thermal stability of chemicals, predicting their decomposition temperature and products, and analyzing potential safety risks.
The Accelerating Rate Calorimeter (ARC) offers several testing modes:
- Constant-Rate Scanning Mode: Quickly identifies the initial reaction temperature and other basic thermal characteristics of a substance.
- Isothermal Mode: Analyzes the thermal characteristics of a substance when exposed to a constant temperature over an extended period.
- HWS (Heating-Waiting-Searching) Mode: Determines thermokinetic parameters under adiabatic conditions.
