Isobaric state diagrams of various binary n-alkane mixtures have been derived from DTA-measurements. They can be described by means of proper thermodynamic relations which are essentially taking into consideration the disparity in chain lengths. The discussion of the thermodynamic parameters is elucidating the physical situation in the longitudinal boundaries of extended mixed crystals such that stability conditions in binary n-alkane systems can be developed. Occurrence of eutecticai crystallization in the binary mixtures can fairly well be predicted dependend upon the relative disparity in chain lengths.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
