The specific heats of five polymers were determined by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) in the temperature range of 300 to 360 K. The measurements were performed with polymers in the form of films, powders, and granules to clarify whether or not DSC specific heat values are dependent on the diminution of the sample. It was found that the specific heats for the bulk and powdered form of the polymer samples are indistinguishable within the error limits, justifying the determination of specific heats of powders by means of DSC.

Ti6Al4V samples were isothermally compressed using a Gleeble(TM) 1500D thermo-mechanical simulator. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), microstructural analyses, and thermodynamic calculations were used to investigate the sequence of transformation of β into α or vice-versa and the presence of different phases in the compressed Ti6Al4V sample. Globular alpha phase was revealed in the isothermally compressed sample in addition to martensitic and lamellar α/β structures. The transition temperature range of β into α-phase was determined using the DSC thermograms and thermodynamic calculated diagrams. The fraction of α-phase globulized increased as the strain rate decreased from 0.01s-1 to 10-3s-1, and the spheroidization of the α-phase is only possible in a specific range of deformation temperatures.

Revival studies of Aeropyrum pernix show that the viability of cells and cell recovery after heat treatment depends on the temperature of treatment. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) is used to analyze the relative thermal stabilities of cellular components of A. pernix and to identify the cellular components responsible for the observed lag phase and reduced maximum growth following a heat treatment. DSC thermograms show 5 visible endothermic transitions with 2 major transitions. DSC analysis of isolated crude ribosomes aids the assignment of the 2 major peaks observed in whole-cell thermograms to denaturation of ribosomal structures. A comparison of partial and immediate full rescan thermograms of A. pernix whole cells indicates that both major peaks represent irreversible thermal transitions. A DNA peak is also identified in the whole-cell thermogram by comparison with the optical data of isolated pure DNA. DNA melting is shown to be irreversible in dilute solution, whereas it is partially reversible in whole cells, owing at least in part, to restricted volume effects. In contrast to mesophilic organisms, hyperthermophilic A. pernix ribosomes are more thermally stable than DNA, but in both organisms, irreversible changes leading to cell death occur owing to ribosomal denaturation.

The heat capacity of solid and liquid LaBr3 was measured by Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) in the temperature range 300 - 1100 K. The obtained results were fitted by a polynomial temperature dependence. The enthalpy of fusion of LaBr3 was also measured. By combination of these results with the literature data on the entropy, S0m (LaBr3, s, 298.15 K) and the standard molar enthalpy of formation, ΔformH0m (LaBr3, s, 298.15 K), the thermodynamic functions of lanthanum tribromide were calculated up to 1300 K

Modified and controlled atmospheres with ≤ 0.5% O2 and/or ≥ 50% CO2 are insecticidal. In previous studies we have found that avocado is very sensitive and mango is very tolerant to these atmospheres. We used DSC to study the differences in response between these two fruits, and to relate that with their sensitivity/tolerance to hypoxia. Fresh or lyophilized tissues of fruits stored in air or in an insecticidal atmosphere were scanned at a temperature range of 10 to 145°C at a rate of 10°C/min. There were qualitative and quantitative differences between thermograms. There were fewer endotherms in thermograms of fresh tissue samples than in lyophilized tissue samples. Avocado thermograms showed a major endotherm at ca 15°C and 2 minor endotherms at ca 105-110°C. In addition, mango heating thermograms showed another major endotherm at ca 80°C. This endotherm was not present in the heating thermograms of avocado. and might represent a contributing factor in the tolerance of mango to insecticidal atmospheres.

The processes of the formation of the nanocomposite coating of Ni–11.5% P–5%W were studied during the heat treatment of amorphous electrodeposited layers. Using the method of differential scanning calorimetry, the temperature of the onset of crystallization of the nanocrystalline phase Ni3P was determined. X-ray diffraction analysis showed that heat treatment produces Ni3P phosphides and, presumably, Ni5P2, the size of which, according to electron microscopy, is 5–50 nm. The influence of the duration of heat treatment on the phase composition and microhardness of coatings is investigated.
