Subject field(s)
  • Thermoanalysis
  • Thermodynamics
  • Physics
  • Plastic Materials
DEF

A technique in which a dimension of a substance under negligible load is measured as a function of temperature while the substance is subjected to a controlled temperature programme.

OBS

The record is the thermodilatometric curve; the dimension should be plotted on the ordinate increasing upwards and temperature or time on the abscissa increasing from left to right.

OBS

Linear thermodilatometry and volume thermodilatometry are distinguished on the basis of the dimensions measured.

OBS

thermodilatometry: term and definition standardized by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO).

Key term(s)
  • thermo-dilatometry
  • thermal dilatometry
  • thermodilatatometry
  • thermo-dilatatometry
  • thermal dilatatometry

French

Domaine(s)
  • Thermo-analyse
  • Thermodynamique
  • Physique
  • Matières plastiques
DEF

Technique selon laquelle une dimension d'un échantillon sous charge négligeable est mesurée en fonction de la température, l'échantillon étant soumis à un programme de température déterminé.

OBS

L'enregistrement est la courbe dilatométrique; la dimension devrait être portée en ordonnées par valeurs croissantes vers le haut, et la température ou le temps, en abscisses par valeurs croissantes vers la droite.

OBS

La thermodilatométrie linéaire et la thermodilatométrie volumique se différencient par les dimensions mesurées.

OBS

thermodilatométrie : terme et définition normalisés par l'Organisation internationale de normalisation (ISO).

Key term(s)
  • thermo-dilatométrie
  • thermodilatatométrie
  • thermo-dilatatométrie
  • dilatométrie thermique
  • dilatatométrie thermique

Spanish

Campo(s) temático(s)
  • Termoanálisis
  • Termodinámica
  • Física
  • Materiales plásticos
DEF

Técnica en la cual se mide una dimensión de una sustancia bajo carga insignificante como una función de la temperatura mientras la sustancia se somete a un programa de temperatura controlada.
