Kinetics of phase transformation of indium in the presence of polytetrafluoroethylene: implication for DSC measurements on polymers and their composites. Maria Raimo. International Journal of Polymer Science, Volume 2015

The present work focuses on the influence, at nominal constant temperatures, of an inert polymer on the crystallization kinetics of a highly conductive metal as indium (In) to show not only that the presence of a polymer allows obtaining information on the In crystallization directly from differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) curves, but also that appropriate corrections of thermal measurements on low conductivity samples are needed.
