Surplus causes disequilibrium in the supply and demand of a product. This imbalance means that the product cannot flow through the market efficiently. However, the cycle of surplus and shortage has a way of balancing itself out.
Environmental scanning is the term used to describe the acquisition and use of information gleaned from sources external to your company. Scanning can be thought of as a form of early-warning radar that lets managers look into the future.
Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) measures the energy absorbed (endotherm) or produced. (exotherm) as a function of time or temperature. It is used to characterize melting, crystallization, resin curing, loss of solvents, and other processes involving an energy change. Differential scanning calorimetry may also be applied to processes involving a change in heat capacity, such as the glass transition. Similar to thermomechanical analysis, one test can generally be used to measure most or all of these properties.
