The phase diagrams of binary systems of cobalt(II) octanoate and lithium, sodium, potassium, and thallium(I) octanoates have been studied by differential thermal analysis and polythermal polarization microscopy. In all systems, continuous or limited liquid crystalline solutions of smectic modification are formed. The temperature and composition ranges of the formation of liquid crystals and glasses have been determined.

Abstract The phase behaviour, the calorimetric and volumetric properties of 2,2,2-trichloro-ethanol (TCE) have been studied with differential thermal analysis (DTA) and pVT measurements in the pressure range 1 atm to 300 MPa and temperatures between 250 K to 355 K. TCE displays a metastable plastic phase (solid I') and a non-plastic solid phase II at atmospheric pressure. At least two pressure-induced solid phases have been detected: a stable plastic phase (solid I') and a non-plastic phase (solid III). There are two sets of triple points: a) 123 MPa and 308 K with the phases solid I, solid II and the liquid, b) 243 MPa and 316 K for solid I, II, III. Furthermore a metastable low-temperature brittle form (solid II') has been found, which transforms to solid I at a considerably lower temperature than solid II. The melting curve of solid I' can be pursued to higher pressures up to 260 MPa. On the other hand, the melting curve of the stable plastic phase solid I can be extrapolated beyond the triple point to pressures below 123 MPa. Volume and enthalpy changes are reported for all phase transitions.
