Topics:

Introduction to the TCi: Explaining the Modified Transient Plane Source Technique for Rapid, Easy Thermal Conductivity Measurement

Learn about the basics of operation to the C-Therm TCi Thermal Conductivity Analyzer. This webinar provides an excellent introduction in understanding the capabilities and limitations of the modified transient plane source (MTPS) method for thermal conductivity characterization.  The TCi offers rapid, non-destructive thermal conductivity testing capability. Designed for lab, quality control and production environments, the TCi is factory calibrated and provides users broad testing ranges - from 0.03 to 120 W/mK at temperatures from (-50º C) to (200º C). The C-Therm TCi provides accurate thermal analysis of solids, liquids, powders and pastes in less time than any other instrument commercially available. Samples require little to no preparation.  The webinar is principally focused on outlining the basic principles of operation to the technique - but will also highlight applications in the fields of nanomaterials, energetics/explosives, concrete/asphalt, metal hydrides, and polymers.

 Thermal Effusivity as a Useful Tool in Powder Charaterization

Join researchers from Long Island University's School of Pharmacy as they discuss their work in applying C-Therm's ESP system in powder characterization. Thermal effusivity is a powerful tool in determining powder characteristics and can be used as a potential PAT tool.  In this presentation selected methodologies commonly used in pharmaceutical development and formulation are correlated with thermal effusivity measurements. Wet granulation, dry granules, compatibility between various powders will be the key points covered. End-point determination using various solvents and materials will be discussed and it’s relationship with effusivity. Compatibility amongst various hydrates and cohesive API’s will also be discussed. This overview will be helpful to pharmaceutical students, and scientists working in R&D and manufacturing.
