What does purity mean and how does it impact your products?
The basics of DSC and the van’t Hoff law for purity analysis
Advantages of DSC compared to other techniques
Application examples – real-world purity determinations
Interactive Q&A with our experts

The purity of ingredients, especially in pharmaceuticals and food products, is a critical quality attribute. High impurity levels can affect product efficacy, cause unexpected reactions, or even generate harmful compounds. Therefore, accurate purity determination is essential for the pharmaceutical, food, chemical, and plastics industries.

In this webinar, we will explain why differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) is a reliable technique for assessing the purity of organic substances, based on the thermodynamics of eutectic systems.

Join us to enhance your knowledge, ask us your questions, and discover practical applications for your industry!

What You Will Learn from This Webinar

In this session, you will learn how DSC is used to determine the purity of organic substances based on the thermodynamics of a eutectic system. We explain how the purity of a substance can be determined from a single DSC measurement using the van’t Hoff equation. Importantly, DSC purity measurements are rapid and easy to perform.

This versatile technique can be used across different industries and workplaces, including research and development, industrial synthesis, and quality control. Typical determinations by DSC include:

Purity of ibuprofen
Purity of p-hydroxybenzoic acid (PHBA)
Determination of eutectic impurities such as benzoic acid in dimethyl terephthalate (DMT)

Register for our upcoming live webinar to learn more about using DSC for purity determination. The webinar will conclude with a live Q&A session, so get your questions ready!
