Abstract

Considering the importance of performing heat capacity (Cp) measurements to gain information about the most important material properties, such as Energy (U), Gibbs Energy (G), Free Energy (F), Enthalpy (H) and Entropy (S) this short review aims at highlight some procedural key steps, in order to correctly carry out the Cp measurement. After a brief presentation of the state of the art's evolution, with particular regards to the Italian calorimetric field, the manuscript faces the main steps of a DSC measure, from the calibration to the choice of the weight and shape of the sample, suggesting the most suitable instrumental and operating conditions.
