Heated Stories: What Differential Scanning Calorimetry Reveals About Petrochemical Materials

Oxidation, stability, and performance - revealed by temperature changes. Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) tells powerful stories about petrochemical materials under thermal and oxidative stress. In this webinar, discover how DSC uncovers oxidation behavior, stability, and phase transitions in lubricants, bituminous binders, biodiesel, and related products.

What you’ll learn:

• Oxidation Induction Time (OIT) and Oxidation Onset Temperature (OOT):
  • Evaluating oxidative stability according to ASTM E1858, ASTM D3895, ISO 11357-6.
• Lubricants and fuels:
  • Thermal stability, additive efficiency, and degradation behavior.
• Bituminous binders and complex formulations:
  • Thermal consistency, aging effects, and phase behavior.
• Practical DSC workflows:
  • Atmosphere control, heating programs, and method optimization for petrochemical applications.

Join us to see how DSC transforms thermal data into actionable insights for quality control, formulation development, and performance prediction in the petrochemical industry.
