Abstract

New solid state heat capacity data for tetracene and pentacene are reported in the temperature range (258 to 600) K. The heat capacity measurements were performed using the step method with a Setaram Micro DSC III calorimeter (Institute of Chemical Technology, Prague) and a Setaram TG-DSC 111 (University of Alberta) calorimeter. These new heat capacity data are shown to be in good agreement with one another and with several solid state constant-pressure heat capacity estimation methods and quantum mechanical calculations. The new results highlight errors in the solid state heat capacity and melting point databases for polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons.
