The micro reaction calorimeter μRC from Thermal Hazard Technology (THT), performs isothermal, step-isothermal, temperature scanning and titration studies as well as having the capacity to stir liquid reaction media. Options for pressure measurement, solid addition and gas flow are available.
The small sample requirement (up to 1.5ml) permits rapid temperature changes because the relatively small heat sink reaches thermal equilibrium very quickly. A stable baseline and temperature change is typically achieved within 20 minutes. The μRC Peltier modules control the sample temperature over the temperature range of –20 to 170°C requiring no external chillers or liquid nitrogen cooling.
THT can offer µRC testing as part of the sample testing and consultancy services package. Providing information about heat of reaction, heat capacity, thermal stability, enthalpy of solution by solid addition and hydrogenation reactions.
As with all THT services we provide a full report and promise a rapid turn-around with confidentiality and a price conscious approach.
