Modulated Differential Scanning Calorimetry Measurements of 27 Compounds

Abstract

This paper reports thermophysical property data on 27 industrially important chemicals including melting temperature, enthalpy of fusion, and liquid heat capacity as a function of temperature. These data were measured using modulated differential scanning calorimetry. The compounds studied are 2-decyl-1-tetradecanol (CAS 58670-89-6), cyclopentylacetic acid (CAS 1123-00-8), 3-chloro-1-propanol (CAS 627-30-5), 1,4-pentanediol (CAS 626-95-9), eugenol (CAS 97-53-0), erucic acid (CAS 112-86-7), 2-(5H)-furanone (CAS 497-23-4), didecyl phthalate (CAS 84-77-5), guaiacol (CAS 90-05-1), vanillin (CAS 121-33-5), o-toluic acid (CAS 118-90-1), octanal (CAS 124-13-0), trans-cinnamic acid (CAS 140-10-3), oleyl alcohol (CAS 143-28-2), 4-carboxybenzaldehyde (CAS 619-66-9), 2-carboxybenzaldehyde (CAS 119-67-5), 3-carboxybenzaldehyde (CAS 619-21-6), 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde (CAS 123-08-0), 2,4-pentanediol (CAS 625-69-4), n-butyl acetate (CAS 123-86-4), n-hexyl acetate (CAS 142-92-7), n-heptyl acetate (CAS 112-06-1), n-nonyl acetate (CAS 143-13-5), ethyl levulinate (CAS 539-88-8), 2-nonanol (CAS 628-99-9), methyl 4-formylbenzoate (CAS 1571-08-0), and 4-(hydroxymethyl) benzoic acid (CAS 3006-96-0). The measured values are compared with favorable results to available data, common prediction methods, and data from similar chemicals.
