Modulated-temperature DSC

  "id": "MLC-T-CHM-007459",
  "term": "Modulated-temperature DSC",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "A thermal analysis technique that superimposes a small, oscillating temperature perturbation on the conventional linear heating or cooling ramp in differential scanning calorimetry. This allows for the separation of complex thermal events into reversing and non-reversing components, such as glass transitions and kinetic processes. The technique provides more detailed information than conventional DSC, particularly for overlapping transitions.",
