Abstract

Method. Transition temperatures were determined by using a Nikon Model POH polarizing microscope fitted with a Mettler FP 52 heating stage and FP 5 control unit. Transition enthalpies were measured with a Daini-Seikosha SSC 560 differential scanning calorimeter. Indium (99.9%) was used as a calibration standard with a heating rate of 5 OC/min. Transition entropies were calculated by the equation AS= AHIT. Preparation. The method ...
