NETZSCH Annuals for Science and Industry - The Guide for Practicians
Thermal analysis is an indispensable tool in polymer technology. Manufacturers,
processors and users employ the methods for material development and
quality assurance through control of raw materials and goods received,
process optimization and failure analysis.
Valuable tips, numerous
application examples, clear tables with characteristic material data
and relevant standards are compiled in this series of annuals for everyday
use in the laboratory. The volumes, which are the result of the many
years of experience of the Polymer Applications Laboratory, NETZSCH-Geraetebau
GmbH and the Fachhochschule Wuerzburg-Schweinfurt-Aschaffenburg, complement
one another with respect to the materials investigated and the methods
used (DSC, TG, DMA, TMA).
The team of authors
is especially pleased about the response to the annuals in the form
of letters and discussions from our large circle of readers and users
on the most varied topics of thermal analysis.
You too can use these "recipes" for your routine laboratory tasks!

Focus on:
Thermal
Analysis
for
Paints
S.
Knappe, H. Möhler,
J. Opfermann, H. Walter
|
| Is
the paint already cured? How many and which solvents are still
contained in the paint? Which emissions occur in the applied temperature
range? Why can the paint be applied better by the competitor?
Why does the painted part break?
Such different
questions must frequently be answered for the development of paints.
Conventional tests are often only single-point measurements and
therefore not sufficient. In order to better understand the most
complex influences, more comprehensive analyses are highly demanded.
The proven
thermoanalytical methods in polymer technology according to DIN
51005 or ASTM E 472 offer an excellent tool. The NETZSCH applications
volume Focus on Thermal Analysis for Paints was released in cooperation
with the University of Applied Sciences Würzburg-Schweinfurt,
Department of Plastics and Rubber Engineering, featuring the wide
range of application with practical examples from industry. With
the help of DMA (Dynamic Mechanical Analysis) investigations of
clear and soft coats as well as paint structures are presented.
Solvents and decomposition products of hydro clear coats and soft
coats are identified by using TG-FTIR (Thermogravimetry with Fourier
Transform Infrared Spectroscopy). Main emphasis was put on describing
the curing behavior of powder paints by means of DSC (Differential
Scanning Calorimetry). These results were kinetically analyzed
and simulated, together with rheometer measurements, with the
new software package ChemRheo® regarding practice-related
temperature profiles. This will not only support developers and
users in the field of paints, but will also give them new ideas
for their daily work.

Focus
on:
Thermal Analysis
for Polymers
H. Möhler, S.Knappe |
|
The status
of thermal analysis in polymer technology has clearly risen internationally
over the past ten to fifteen years. In particular, DSC (Differential
Scanning Calorimetry) has long been successfully applied in routine
testing of goods received, quality control and quality assurance
at injection molding and extrusion processors. In the rubber industry,
quantitative analysis of rubber by means of TG (Thermogravimetry)
and verification of vulcanization using DSC are becoming increasingly
important. The curing of thermosets is being investigated with
DSC, aided by reaction kinetics. DMA (Dynamic Mechanical Analysis)
and TMA (Thermomechanical Analysis) are being used more and more
frequently, especially with composite materials and in blend technology.
In literature,
thermal analysis has almost always been considered separately.
In the applications volume, "Focus on: Thermal Analysis for Polymers",
released 1998 by the Fachhochschule Würzburg-Schweinfurt-Aschaffenburg,
Studiengang Kunststofftechnik and NETZSCH-Gerätebau GmbH,
practical industrial topics will be used to explain correlations
between thermoanalytical measurement techniques and conventional
test methods used in mechanics, physical chemistry and process
technology. In addition, examples will be presented dealing with
material and component development. The significance of thermal
analysis as a quick, economical test method will be emphasized.
Please read
also the English translation of the book review "Focus on: Thermal
Analysis for Polymers" from Martin Dohn, Dingolfing, published
in German language in the GEFTA Notes 2/2000.

Ceramic
Handbook - "TA for Ceramic Materials"
The 2nd edition
of the NETZSCH Industrial Applications Handbook, "TA
for Ceramic Materials" is
now available. Here, in addition to an introduction to the various methods
of thermal analysis, over 30 examples are presented for raw and building
materials, silicate ceramics and glass, and, for technical ceramics,
mechanical applications as well as electronic, magnetic and optical
applications. Instruments/methods addressed are the dilatometer (DIL),
thermomechanical analyzer (TMA), glaze stress tester (GST), differential
scanning calorimeter (DSC), thermogravimetric analyzer (TG), simultaneous
thermal analyzer (STA), STA/evolved gas analysis and the laser flash
apparatus (LFA). The application examples have been updated and edited,
and some new examples - in particular, from the classic "oxide ceramics"
- have been added.
For a global view
of the possible applications of modern thermal analysis in research,
development and quality assurance of ceramics, order your copy today:
