Z. Naturforsch. 53 a, 796-800 (1998); received May 30, 1998 Differential thermal analysis (DTA), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and the temperature dependence of the spin-lattice relaxation time (T{) and the second moment (M2) of H and F NMR were studied in (CH3)3CNH3BF4 and (CH3)3CND3BF4. DTA and DSC revealed a solid-solid phase transition at 219 K for (CH3)3CNH3BF4 and at 221 K for ...

BACKGROUND Microbial synthesis of oleochemicals derived from native fatty acid (FA) metabolism has presented significant advances in recent years. Even so, native FA biosynthetic pathways often provide a narrow variety of usually linear hydrocarbons, thus yielding end products with limited structural diversity. To overcome this limitation, we took advantage of a polyketide synthase-based system...

5,5'-Bis-(trinitromethyl)-3,3'-bi-(1,2,4-oxadiazole) is a new ternary CNO-compound. It has been synthesized by nitration of diammonium 5,5'-bis-(dinitromethanide)-3,3'-bi-(1,2,4-oxadiazole) with nitronium tetrafluoroborate. Single crystal X-ray diffraction studies show a remarkable high density. Thermal stability and sensitivities of the new compound were determined by differential scanning cal...

The ternary compound Cu8SiSe6 was studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Based on the data of DSC curves for two samples with different masses, temperature and enthalpy phase transition from low-temperature orthorhombic modification to high-temperature cubic were determined. Using Gibbs-Helmholtz equation, entropy also calculated.

A four-folded azidation of tetrakis(4-iodophenyl)methane and -adamantane leads to stable organic azides, but yet energetic materials, measured by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The rigid and symmetrical structures can be useful for new polymer and nanomaterial developments in material sciences as well as bioconjugations, after 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reactions with terminal alkynes ...

The mononuclear ferric compound Fe(H-5-Cl-thsa-Me)(5-Cl-thsa-Me)·H2O () was synthesized and characterized using powder/single-crystal X-ray diffraction, Mössbauer spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and magnetic susceptibility measurements. This photo-responsive compound shows reversible, two-step spin-crossover behaviour. Moreover, dielectric anomalies were observed during t...

Poly (ethylene-co-vinyl acetate) (EVA) is the major polymer used for photovoltaic (PV) modules encapsulation. Its degree of cross-linking (related to its gel content) is taken as a major quality reference. Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) has been proven to be fast and effective but is to determine the gel content, however, destructive for the PV module. With the aim to develop a non-des...

An ethynyl-substituted nickel(II) phthalocyanine has been synthesised and its thermotropic properties studied; optical microscopy, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) techniques revealed an unusual mesomorphic behaviour observed for the first time in phthalocyanine systems where each disk of the hexagonal columnar mesophase is formed by two ethynyl-substituted ph...

We confirmed that most C(60) fullerene units are located in the hydrophobic core of the lipid bilayer membrane in water-soluble lipid membrane incorporated C(60) (LMIC(60)) complexes using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and (13)C NMR spectra in the presence of radical labels.
