Please keep in mind the importance of preparing your sample, the distribution of the sample on the weighing pan,
the type of sample and the temperature range. Remember, the greater the number of uniform samples tested, the
greater the accuracy of the results.

Results of substances which form crusts (e.g. glucose syrup) or pasty substances (e.g. butter) can be consider -

For pasty, fat containing and melting substances, use of a glass fiber filter is advantageous to increase the
surface area of the sample.
