Sm. Sarge et al., METROLOGICALLY BASED PROCEDURES FOR THE TEMPERATURE, HEAT AND HEAT-FLOW RATE CALIBRATION OF DSC, Journal of thermal analysis, 49(2), 1997, pp. 1125-1134
Metrologically based measuring procedures and evaluation methods are r
ecommended as guidance for practical temperature, heat and heat flow r
ate calibration of DSC instruments which are largely independent of in
strumental, test and sample parameters. The relevant terms are defined
, the measuring procedures and evaluation methods described, calibrati
on materials and their characteristic data stated and guidance for the
sample handling provided. Reference is made to three extended papers
on calibration. The recommendations were developed by the working grou
p 'Calibration of Scanning Calorimeters' of the German Society of Ther
mal Analysis (GEFTA).
