Abstract

In this paper, it is made a study of the accuracy of an isothermal titration calorimeter in the operating mode of ‘continuous injection’. The experimental equipment has been a TAM2277-201/2250 by Thermometric AB and the liquid mixtures used in the calibration have been the mixture cyclohexane+benzene and the mixture water+ethanol. The calibration contemplates different effects that affect the uncertainty in the determination of the sensitivity, the effect of the liquid injection, the treatment of the calorimetric signal, the variation of the experimental baseline and the different noises included in the calorimetric signal.
