Metals

While inorganic spectroscopy or surface techniques are often used to study metals, thermal analysis offers several key applications in this area.

These include:

• Determining the melting points of metals, alloys, and solders

• Detecting of eutectic points and transitions

• Determining curie points in magnetic materials like nickel, iron, invar, etc.

• Measuring thermal expansion of alloys and materials

• Measuring oxidation
