DTA is based on the temperature difference while DSC is based on the heat flow difference. Differential thermal analysis (DTA) is suited for the determination of characteristic temperatures, while differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) additionally allows for the determination of caloric values such as the heat of fusion or heat of crystallisation. This can be done with two different measuring techniques: heat-flux differential scanning calorimetry or power-compensated differential scanning calorimetry.
DSC and DTA are both used in measuring a glass transition, phase changes, purity evaporation, melting, purity crystallization, sublimation, polymerization, heat capacity, compatibility, pyrolysis, etc.
