Crystallization and glass transition of the diols and aminoalcohols, according to DSC data

Abstract

Overcooling, crystallization, and glass transition of the diol series and aminoalcohols which are the liquids with spatial hydrogen-bond networks, which are the along with the overcooling of dioxane, dimethylsulfoxide, and acetonitrile, which do not have such networks were studied by DSC. The observed phenomena are explained by the stability of H-bond networks. It was concluded that changes in the stability of the networks in and between series of diols and aminoalcohols are due to differences between their molecular structures, the energies of their hydrogen bonds, and their network topologies.
