Abstract
The thermal analysis and infrared (IR) spectroscopy were used to study cyclohexanol irreversible transformations from an orientationally disordered plastic state to metastable III and then to a stable II crystalline phase. It was found that the orientational glass transition in cyclohexanol occurs at Tg ∼ 163.5 K. Solid–solid transition from orientationally disordered phase I to metastable phase III occurs at 195 K. Crystal phase III nucleates at Ta = 203 K and converts into phase I at T = 233.7 K. The stable crystal phase II is formed by nucleation at 213 K. It converts into phase I at T = 250 K. It is shown by IR spectroscopy that the phase transitions in solid cyclohexanol are correlated with conformational changes in the cyclohexanol molecule.
