Abstract

A comparative analysis of phase transitions in molecular crystals of carboxylic acids (n-alkano acids) with various chain lengths, (CH3(CH2) n COOH) is performed with the use of DSC. A number of new effects related to first-order phase transitions are discovered. The temperature dependence of heat capacity is quantitatively analyzed in terms of the theory of blurred (Λ-shaped) phase transitions of the first order.
