Abstract
The work continues the project of physicochemical characterization of terpenic substances that are present in plants and after emission to the atmosphere play an important role in the formation of cloud condensation nuclei. Two substances, which are solid at room temperature, were studied in this work, namely both enantiomers of menthol and (–)- $$\upalpha$$ -terpineol. Temperatures and enthalpies of fusion were measured, isobaric heat capacities were measured in the temperature range 326.15–348.15 K and vapor pressures were measured in the temperature range 400–430 K. The experimental values were compared with predictions by COSMO-RS. Modern nonstatistical algorithms based on mathematical gnostics were used for data analysis.
