The ARC is an adiabatic calorimeter used for reactor and pilot plant safety analysis.
It determines the time, temperature, and pressure relationships for exothermic reactions.

Applications related to ARC data include:

* Heat generation rates
* Onset temperature
* Decomposition temperature of the mixture
* Adiabatic temperature rise
* Pressure generation rate
* Time to maximum rate
* Temperature of no return

Our ARC contract testing service test protocol conforms to ASTM standard E 1981, “Standard Guide for Assessing the Thermal Stability of Materials by Methods of Accelerating Rate Calorimetry.” In addition, we have a variety of ARC test cells that can accommodate all of your ARC testing needs.
