            Using temperature-modulated DSC measurements, you can separate complex data such as                                       To measure the specific heat of samples using DSC, a comparison of the calorific values of three
            overlapping transitions and reactions, and can measure specific heat. For specific heat                                   measurement results (a blank, a standard, and the sample) is calculated.
            measurements, the number of measurement cycles is fewer than with standard DSC                                            With this program, the above-mentioned calculations are automated, so finding the specific heat

            impossible with standard DSC, can now be performed.                                                                       also calculate the specific heat simultaneously at preset temperatures (up to 15 temperatures).
            Temperature-modulated DSC measurements achieve both high resolution and high sensitivity,
            which have been difficult to achieve with standard DSC measurements, enabling higher accuracy
            measurements.
