Abstract: | A number of compounds is investigated for DSC calibration during cooling. Adamantane and Zn show fast reversible transitions
and can be applied both for temperature and for heat calibrations. A third compound, namely 4,4’-azoxyanisole, has a liquid
crystal to isotropic liquid transition at 409K. This compound can be used for temperature calibration. Heat calibration with
this compound is more problematic because of the small heat effect and the construction of the baseline. Other compounds like
NaNO3, In, Hg and Pb, show a slight supercooling. Nevertheless they can be used for heat calibration. The use of large samples
of NaNO3 and In gives the possibility to construct the equilibrium onset temperatures of the cooling peaks, so these two compounds
are also appropriate for temperature calibration on cooling.
