Abstract
The kinetics of the development of the structural phase transition of the first order in monodisperse samples of tetracosane C24H50 has been studied using Fourier-transform IR spectroscopy. Temperature dependences of frequencies and intensities of rocking (in the region of ν ~ 720 cm–1) and bending (in the region of ν ~ 1470 cm–1) vibration modes of CH2 groups in trans methylene sequences in crystalline cores of elementary lamellae has been analyzed. It has been shown that the solid-phase transition of the first order develops by the heterogeneous mechanism in a narrow temperature interval ΔT ~ 2 K according to the theory of diffuse phase transitions of the first order and is caused by changes in the symmetry of crystallographic cells.
