The method of optical wedge revealed that the optimum temperature for compatibility of hexakis(4-acetamidophenoxy)cyclotriphosphazene (ACP) and DER-331 epoxy resin is in the range of 220–260 °C. The interdiffusion time of components at these temperatures is about 30 min. The TGA and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) methods revealed the curing temperature of 280 °С for this composition. IR spectroscopy confirmed that the reaction between the resin and ACP is completed within 10 min. According to the DSC data, a glass transition temperature of 130 °С was estimated for the cured resin. Combustion test UL-94 demonstrated that the obtained material can be assigned to the fireproof category of V-0. Burning droplets were not formed during the burning. The coke formed during the combustion of samples possessed a dense and porous structure. The shape of pores is closed, while their size is in the range of 0.2–200 µm.

AbstractWe present an overview for the basic fundamental of thermal analysis, which is applicable for educational purposes, especially for lecturers at the universities, who may refer to the articles as the references to “teach” or to “lecture” to final year project students or young researchers who are working on their postgraduate projects. Description of basic instrumentation [i.e. differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetry (TGA)] covers from what we should know about the instrument, calibration, baseline and samples’ signal. We also provide the step-by-step guides for the estimation of the glass transition temperature after DSC as well as examples and exercises are included, which are applicable for teaching activities. Glass transition temperature is an important property for commercial application of a polymeric material, e.g. packaging, automotive, etc. TGA is also highlighted where the analysis gives important thermal degradation information of a material to avoid sample decomposition during the DSC measurement. The step-by-step guides of the estimation of the activation energy after TGA based on Hoffman’s Arrhenius-like relationship are also provided.

Abstract Thermodynamic properties of selected honeys: glass transition temperature (Tg), the change in specifi c heat capacity (ΔCp), and enthalpy (ΔH) were analysed using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) in relation to the composition i.e. water and sugar content. Glass transition temperatures (Tg) of various types of honey differed significantly (p<0.05) and ranged from -49.7°C (polyfloral) to -34.8°C (sunflower). There was a strong correlation between the Tg values and the moisture content in honey (r = -0.94). The degree of crystallisation of the honey also influenced the Tg values. It has been shown that the presence or absence of sugar crystals influenced the glass transition temperature. For the decrystallised honeys, the Tg values were 6 to 11°C lower than for the crystallised honeys. The more crystallised a honey was, the greater the temperature difference was between the decrystallised and crystallized honey. In conclusion, to obtain reliable DSC results, it is crucial to measure the glass transition after the complete liquefaction of honey.

In this study various compositions in the phosphate based glass (PBG) system of (50-x)P2O5-40Ca-(5+x)Na-5TiO2 and (50-x)P2O5-40Ca-(5+x)Na-5Fe2O3, where x= 5 and 10 were investigated for glass transition temperature (Tg) via thermo mechanical analyser (TMA) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The amorphous nature of the glasses was confirmed via XRD. The Tg measured via DSC was consistently higher by 19°C-29°C compared to TMA and was due to the thermal history and the heating rate of the samples. The Tg increased with increasing phosphate content in both glass systems. The Tg for Ti containing PBG was found to be in the range of 453°C-500°C whilst Tg for Fe containing PBG was in the range of 449°C-494°C. Consistently higher Tg for the Ti containing glass series compared to the Fe containing glasses may be attributed to the smaller ionic radius and therefore higher field strength of Ti4+.

Β Relaxation

This research has been carried out in order to demonstrate the use of differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) in detecting and measuring α- and β-relaxation processes in amorphous pharmaceutical systems. DSC has been employed to study amorphous samples of poly (vinylpyrrolidone) (PVP), indomethacin (InM), and ursodeoxycholic acid (UDA) that are annealed at temperature (Ta) around 0.8 of their glass transition temperature (Tg). Dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) is used to measure β- relaxation in PVP. Yet, the DSC has been used to study the glassy indomethacin aged at 0 and -10 oC for periods of time up to 109 and 210 days respectively. The results demonstrate the emergence of a small melting peak of the α-polymorph after aging for 69 days at 0°C and for 147 days at -10°C (i.e., ~55°C below the glass transition temperature) that provides evidence of nucleation occurring in the temperature region of the β-relaxation.
