A SYSTEM OF MICROCALORIMETERS

For more than ten years our laboratory has been engaged in extending a modular microcalorimetric system designed for accurate work in several areas of basic and applied chemistry and biology. The system includes a very stable thermostatted water bath that can house up to four twin heat-conduction microcalorimeters. The calorimeters are used with various flow vessels or insertion vessels ranging from simple closed ampoules to stirred vessels fitted with injection tubes, devices facilitating dissolution processes (1, g, s), electrodes (pH, p(O2)), optical cables or equipment for electrochemical processes.
