The Melting Point of Diphenylamine.

Melting Point Determination

An improved technique is described for the accurate determination of melting points of metals in the temperature range 1500° to 2500°C. The improvements consist of gradient heating and refinements in cavity preparation to obtain true black-body conditions. The melting point of hafnium, as determined by this method, is set a t 22220-+30°C. This is over 200°C higher than one of the values reporte...

Experimental study of the of the thermo-regulating property of clothing system contained different melting point microencapsulated PCMs

Solid clusters above the bulk melting point

The fact that the melting points of nanoparticles are always lower than those of the corresponding bulk material is a paradigm supported by extensive experimental data for a large number of systems and by numerous calculations. Here we demonstrate that tin cluster ions with 10-30 atoms remain solid at approximately 50 K above the melting point of bulk tin. This behavior is possibly related to t...

Fabrication and Optimization of a PAGATA Gel Dosimeter: Increasing the Melting Point of the PAGAT Gel Dosimeter with Agarose Additive

Introduction: The PAGAT polymer gel dosimeter melts at 30 ˚C and even at room temperature during the summer, so it needs to be kept in a cool place such as a refrigerator. To increase the stability of the PAGAT gel, different amounts of agarose were added to the PAGAT gel composition and the PAGATA gel was manufactured. Material and Methods: The PAGATA gel vials were irradiated using a Co-60 ma...

Heat capacity of rare earth metals near the melting point and the vacancy mechanism of melting

The vacancy mechanism of the melting process is utilized as a starting point for deriving the formula for the difference of the heat capacity of the liquid and solid metal in the neighbourhood of the melting point. From these calculations it follows that the difference C,, C,, is the same for all the metals and equals 3.50 J g.atom-' K-'. This result is compared with the existing in the literat...
