Development of Reference Material 8103: Adamantane for Subambient DSC Temperature and Enthalpy Calibration

by Tara J. Fortin, Amanda A. Koepke and Jolene D. Splett

About this book

This NIST report describes the development of an adamantane reference material for calibrating differential scanning calorimeters below room temperature. The study establishes reference values for the material’s transition temperature and enthalpy.

The authors explain preparation, experimental measurements, data analysis and uncertainty evaluation. Tables and plots support the resulting values and their intended calibration use. This complete September 2024 publication preserves the original measurements, calculations and references.
