Abstract

Modern healthcare depends on advanced medical products that come up with new ways to care for and help patients. Characterizing these products is important to make sure they are safe, effective, and work well. While there are many analysis methods, Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC), Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA), and Dynamic Mechanical Analysis (DMA) are the most important ones for checking the temperature and mechanical qualities of medical materials. By measuring the heat flow that goes along with physical and chemical changes, DSC is often used to look into the thermal shifts and stability of materials. DSC is useful in medicine because it helps scientists understand phase changes, crystallinity, and how well materials work with living things. This information is used to make better drug delivery systems, devices, and nanomaterials. TGA works with DSC to measure how much the mass of a material changes over time or at different temperatures. This method works really well for checking how medical materials, like plastics, composites, and biodegradable structures, break down and change over time when heated. TGA lets experts check the stability and breakdown rates of medical devices and implants by looking at how much weight people lose. This makes sure that the devices and implants will work well and be compatible with the body in the long run. DMA looks at how materials behave mechanically when they are loaded and unloaded quickly. It gives useful information about stiffness, damping, and viscoelastic qualities. When it comes to medical materials, DMA is a key part of figuring out how strong, resistant to wear, and compatible implants, limbs, and tissue-engineered structures are. DMA helps engineers and doctors understand how materials react mechanically inside the human body by mimicking physiological conditions. This information guides the creation of new medical devices and implants
