Phase transformations and thermal conductivity of three In-Ag alloys with 5, 15, and 45 wt.% of Ag were experimentally investigated in the present work. Phase transition temperatures were measured using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). DSC heating scans were compared with the equilibrium and non-equilibrium solidification paths, calculated by using optimized thermodynamic parameters from literature and calculation of phase diagrams (CALPHAD) method.  The flash method was employed for the determination of thermal diffusivity and thermal conductivity of the investigated alloys in the temperature range from 25 to 100 °C. It has been found that an increase in silver content does not lead to an increase in the thermal conductivity of the investigated alloys. Thermal conductivities for all three investigated In-Ag alloys slightly decrease with temperature increasing.

ABSTRACTThe synthesis, characterization and phase transition studies of higher homologues of N(p-nbutoxybenzylidene)p-n-alkylanilines, Viz., 4O.m series (m=14 and 16) are carried out by thermal microscopy, differential scanning calorimetry and density. The compounds exhibit a phase variant of nematic and smectic-A. Density studies reveal a first order nature of IN transitions and a weak first order NA transitions. An estimate of pressure dependence of the phase transition temperatures using the volume and enthalpy data are presented. A comparison of these results with other reported results in nO.m and other compounds are presented.

In order to obtain appropriate forms of AgI (?- and ?-), a procedure was developed to synthesize AgI at room temperature (23?C), whereby samples of varying crystallographic purity and of varying crystallographic contents of the different forms were obtained. This paper presents the results of investigations of the influence of the manner of preparation of ?-AgI and ?-AgI samples and the sample heating rate on the phase transformations and their temperatures. During the heating of non-ground, ground and pressed synthesized AgI samples, the phase transformations and the corresponding temperatures for one ?-AgI and four ?-AgI samples with different ?-AgI contents (representing a crystallographic impurity) were identified. The following phase transformations were observed for the non-ground AgI samples: ?-AgI ? ?-AgI at 149.6?C (for the ?-AgI sample) and ?-AgI ? ?-AgI at 148.7?C or 148.2?C for the ?-AgI samples with a minimum content of ?-AgI (less than 7 %), as a crystallographic impurity. The phase transition ?-AgI ? ?-AgI was irreversible because ?-AgI was obtained whenever the samples were heated up to 260?C. Manual sample grinding, as well as pressing at p1 = 650 MPa and p2 = 900 MPa resulted in the ?-AgI ? ?-AgI phase transition in all the investigated cases. .

Phase transition temperatures of ferroelectric liquid crystals ((S)-(-)-2-methylbutyl 4′-(4″-n-alkanoyloxybenzoyloxy) biphenyl-4-carboxylates (where n=16 and 18)) are studied through two techniques of image analysis. One is a statistical method, applied to compute the statistical parameters from the textures of each sample and the other, computation of Legendre moments being applied as image moment analysis, both of which are considered as a function of temperature. The textures of the samples are recorded with the polarizing optical microscope (POM) attached to the hot stage and high resolution camera. The phase transition temperatures of samples are inferred by the abrupt changes in the computed parameter values. The results obtained from the present methodology are in good agreement with those published in earlier literature done by the different techniques, like differential scanning calorimetry (DSC).
