The Dynamic Mechanical Analyzer (DMA) is a widely used thermomechanical analysis instrument for characterizing the viscoelastic properties of materials such as polymers, composites, elastomers, and some metals. This method, preferred in approximately 60% of polymer analyses, offers high precision in determining the glass transition temperature (Tg), elasticity, and damping characteristics. In Türkiye, it is actively employed at centers such as EGEMATAL at Ege University, ARUM at Eskişehir Osmang

Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) is a thermal analysis method that examines the physical and chemical transformations of a material by measuring the difference in heat flow between a sample and a reference. It is widely used to determine parameters such as phase transitions (e.g., melting crystallization glass transition), chemical reactions, and specific heat capacity. DSC instruments were developed in the 1960s and commercially introduced within the same decade. Today DSC is extensively
