Abstract: | A study of the effects of changing sample mass and purge gas on the phase lag and calculation of the out of phase (kinetic)
component for polystyrene in MTDSC was undertaken. The results confirm those from an earlier study that suggested the kinetic
signal is unchanged by altering these parameters thus it is probably a correct quantitative measure of this signal. The effects
of long annealing times were also studied and it was shown that all the signals of MTDSC are affected in contrast to a previous
study showing that for moderate annealing the reversing and kinetic signals are substantially invariant. Nevertheless the
non-reversing signal remains useful for characterising relative enthalpy losses.
