Abstract
The temperature dependence of the heat capacity of poly(phenylene-pyridyl) dendrons of the second and the third generations have been measured by the method of adiabatic vacuum and differential scanning calorimetry over the range from 6K to (500–520)K in the present research. Phase transformations have been detected and their thermodynamic characteristics have been estimated and analysed in the above temperature range. The standard thermodynamic functions, namely, the heat capacity Cp0(T), enthalpy H°(T)−H°(0), entropy S°(T)−S°(0) and potential Φm°, for the range from T→0K to (500–520)K and the standard entropy of formation of the dendrons in different physical states at T=298.15K have been calculated based on the experimental results. The thermodynamic characteristics of the samples under study and investigated earlier, poly(phenylene-pyridyl) dendrons decorated with dodecyl groups of the same generations have been compared and discussed.
