16、est Conshohocken, PA 19428-2959. United States13.2.9.1 DiscussionThe total heat flow is equivalent to theheat flow signal of conventional differential scanning calorim-etry.3.2.9.2 DiscussionThe total heat flow is equal to the sumof the reversing and nonreversing heat flows.4. Summary of Test Method
17、4.1 The determination of the glass transition by differentialscanning calorimetry using Test Method E1356 is difficultwhen kinetic events such as the cure exotherm of a thermosetresin occur at or near the glass transition. In MTDSC, the totalheat flow signal is separated into reversing and nonrevers
18、ingcomponents. The heat capacity change that indicates the glasstransition appears in the reversing heat flow signal, whilekinetic events (for example, curing, enthalpy of recovery, etc.)appear in the nonreversing heat flow signal. The separation ofthese two signals permits the determination of the
19、enthalpy ofreaction and the assignment of the glass transition in a singleexperiment.4.1.1 This MTDSC method involves the continuous moni-toring of the reversing and nonreversing heat flow into or outof a test specimen as it is heated at a controlled rate through theglass transition region.5. Signif
20、icance and Use5.1 Materials undergo an increase in molecular mobility atthe glass transition seen as a sigmoidal step increase in the heatcapacity. This mobility increase may lead to kinetic events suchas enthalpic recovery, chemical reaction or crystallization attemperatures near the glass transiti
21、on. The heat flow associatedwith the kinetic events may interfere with the determination ofthe glass transition.5.2 The glass transition is observed in differential scanningcalorimetry as a sigmoidal or step change in specific heatcapacity.5.3 MTDSC provides a test method for the separation of thehe
22、at flow due to heat capacity and that associated with kineticevents making it possible to determine the glass transition inthe presence of interfering kinetic event.5.4 These test methods are useful in research anddevelopment, quality assurance and control and specificationacceptance.5.5 Other metho
