Abstract
âºMixing of DMPE and TMCL is non-ideal over the composition range 5-95 mol.%. âºHydrocarbon chain-melting temperatures and mixture composition are poorly correlated. âºChain-melting enthalpy is strongly correlated with the mol fraction of TMCL chains. âºMixtures containing â¥Â 10 mol % TMCL form TMCL-like Lc phases upon cooling. âºTMCL inhibits the formation of DMPE-like Lc phases in DMPE-rich mixtures.
