Abstract

There is provided a differential scanning calorimeter for exactly measuring a calorie variation of the measured sample on the basis of the temperature difference between sample container and the reference container without the influence of the heat irregularity incoming from the surroundings and the noise components. The differential scanning calorimeter includes a heating furnace of an approximately H-shaped section having an approximately drum-shaped wall part and an approximately plate-shaped heat inflow part, a heater disposed outside the wall part so as to heat the heating furnace, a approximately bar-shaped heat-resistance member that is arranged along the center axis L of the wall part, that protrudes from both sides of the heat inflow part by an approximately equal length, that is made of a material heat conductivity lower than that of the material of the heating furnace, a sample container disposed at one end of the heat-resistance member, a reference container disposed at the other end of the heat-resistance member, and a differential heat flow detector measuring a difference between the temperature of the sample container and the temperature of the reference container as a measured value.
