Discovery DSC 2500 adhesive residual-reaction comparison
TA Instruments · Engineering measurement and characterization
- Purpose
- Lid-adhesive cure comparisons need a formulation-specific reaction reference and processed samples.
- Technical approach
- DSC 2500 measures heat flow and transitions, including residual reaction and Tg; MDSC can help separate overlapping events.
- Scope of use
- Consider representative uncured/processed thermosets, establishing reference and method for the formulation.
- Limitations and open questions
These evaluation considerations are compiled by BLNKK from public information. They are not supplier guarantees or a mandatory submission checklist.
Scope and limitationsPan conditions differ from assembly thermal history. Separate volatiles/overlapping events; heat flow is not adhesion strength or failure causation.
What to prepareBLNKK suggests matched references, processing/sampling history, mass, pan/atmosphere and heating program alongside bond tests.
Confirm with the supplierConfirm enthalpy reference, integration/transition interpretation, MDSC/software configuration and material-specific validation.
- Public evidence
- The product page lists cure analysis; TA389 relates residual cure to unreacted-material reaction enthalpy.
