Anotations

Scope note:

A method of differential thermal analysis using a thermocouple which is mounted on a microscope stage and can simultaneously function as a microfurnace and thermometer. The technique allow continuous monitoring and recording of the cooling curves of melt droplets or the heating curves of glass beads between any two pre-selected temperatures.
