Results & Achievements

Binary mixture phase diagram
The solid-liquid phase diagram of methyl stearate and hexadecane have been
derived (fig. 4)
Forming a typical eutectic … 50

- eutectic point composition around 0.1 mole fraction of methyl stearate, 40

- Eutectic temperature ~16 ºC.

T / ºC

A small (but detectable in DSC ) solid-solid transition was found at around 4 oC. 20

It found that the solid -Solid transition is correlated with the composition of
hexadecane. 0 ?...

The region depicted in fig. 4 (gray square) high concentration of hexadecane have 0.0 0.1 0.2 0.3 0.4 0.5 0.6 0.7 0.8 0.9 1.0

to be study more in detail in order to explored the possible formation of co-

crystals between the hexadecane and the methyl stearate.
