of the phenol adsorption enthalpies are less frequent [ 2 , 10 – 13 ]. In this respect, mainly flow adsorption and/or titration calorimetry are valuable techniques to gain reliable data [ 10 , 12 ], giving evidently exothermic effects in all known
Introduction Temperature-modulated differential scanning calorimetry (TMDSC) developed by Reading et al. [ 1 ] was commercialized shortly afterward and is being widely applied in different fields such as material research
describe the interaction of GlyGly with copper(II) ions and to gain knowledge of the mechanism of formation of a biologically relevant complex, calorimetric measurements were conducted. Isothermal titration calorimetry and potentiometric measurements were

magnitude of the undercooling during solidification can also be measured [ 13 ]. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) is a powerful technique that measures the enthalpy change of a sample under controlled conditions, e.g. in solidification or phase
Abstract
Reaction calorimetry strongly penetrated process development laboratories in the fine chemicals industry. Applications of calorimetry to different fields of process optimization, chemical reactions and physical unit operations were developed. Applications were first developed in the field of process safety. The thermal data of reaction obtained in the calorimeters allow us to check if a reaction will be controllable at full scale under normal operating conditions and in case of equipment failure. Further, the accurate temperature control and heat flow measurement opened the door to more engineering related data, in the fields of phase equilibria like vapour liquid, solubilities, crystallization and also in the mixing techniques. Some examples of developments in these different fields will be reviewed.
