Results in detail:

Melting temperature         

The test item shows a melting temperature at 32°C peak temperature, if it has been cooled down to temperatures well below room temperature.

Determination

Higher Peaktemperature [°C]

A

31.6

C

32.4

Mean value

32

 The estimated accuracy is±1°C.

 

 Observed thermic processes:

A glass transition was found at -68°C in Test 1.

In Test 1 the existence of coldcrystallization (exothermal peak at about -3°C) and the endothermal peak at about 35°C demonstrates, that the test item has a melting temperature above RT despite the fact, that it is liquid as delivered. For a high crystallinity, the test item was cooled to -130°C, heated up to 0°C and annealed for 10 min. In the following measurements A and B a single endothermal peak was found and evaluated as melting temperature.
