    Brief

    Trinity College Dublin is seeking suppliers for a new Differential Scanning Calorimeter (DSC). This advanced instrument should feature double-furnace technology and be capable of measuring a variety of samples, including polymers, pharmaceutical compounds, inorganic materials, and thin films. The DSC must accommodate different sample pan sizes and types, including high-pressure pans, and operate within a temperature range of -70°C to 700°C. An external cooler is required to achieve sub-ambient temperatures, and it is preferred that an existing cooler be utilized. Additionally, the DSC should be compatible with an existing sample pan crimper. The software must include advanced functionalities such as DSC Kinetics, Specific Heat, and Crystallinity analysis. The selected supplier will be responsible for delivering, installing, and commissioning the instrument, as well as providing training for its use.
