You have to be aware that the TTS analysis does not work if there is crystalization in the temperature range of the experiments. If you give me my email I can share with you some papers of mine that could help you. I don´t know wich instrument are you using but TA Instruments equiments have the TTS analysis and WLF analysis implemented in the software.

Sarath Chandran C.

I did the experiments using TA instruments but i did the experiments in Australia and the software that i am having do not have the option to do it. My e-mail address is [email protected], [email protected].

Looking forward to hearing from you

I will contact you asap

There is a great piece of software at www.reptate.com

I used it several papers and it was developed during a research project i was involved with called "microscale polymer processing" (MuPP).

Thank you so much i will have a look at the software.

If you need any help using the software, please feel free to message me. Its very simple to use once you have made the data files.
