Investigation of some low-temperature characteristics of plasticizers based on ethylene glycol

The results obtained by studying the low-temperature characteristics of diols (ethylene glycol and its derivatives) their nitroesters differential scanning calorimetry method are presented. It is shown that studied compounds characterized glass transition temperatures in range from -73 to -103 o C, while ethylene dinitrate differ other presence crystallization melting under experimental conditions. Keywords: Differential calorimetry, derivatives, temperature.
