Application of fast scanning calorimetry to the fusion thermochemistry of low-molecular-weight organic compounds: Fast-crystallizing m-terphenyl heat capacities in a deeply supercooled liquid state

The molar heat capacity of the solid, the enthalpy and fusion temperature of m-terphenyl were determined by conventional DSC. Kirchhoff's integral, calculated from the measured molar heat capacities of solid and liquid m-terphenyl, was in accordance with the fusion and solution thermochemistry data.
