Abstract
A sample holder and a reference holder are arranged coaxially. Heat conductors making heat exchange with a heat sink are joined to the heat sink at the same position. The inside diameter of the heat sink can be made close to the diameter of the sample container without spoiling the stability of the baseline that is a feature of heat-flux DSC. The heat capacity of the heat sink can be decreased. Therefore, the response to the temperature as it is elevated and lowered can be improved greatly.
