Abstract:
The variation with temperature of the sensitivity of a “Thermanalyse” microcalorimeter has been determined using the electrical calibration system of the apparatus. From the results, a method for the correction of the differential scanning microcalorimetric diagrams has been developed. The influence on the determination of the rate constants during kinetic studies of the decompositions of free radical initiators and on enthalpy measurements has been studied.
