Effect of Some Aromatic Admixtures on the Raman Line Intensity of Solid Cyclohexane at 77 K

The dependence of the intensity of Raman line components of E_g symmetry of cyclohexane, frozen rapidly down to 77 K, on the concentration of admixtures of benzene or naphtalene was studied quantitatively. The admixture of benzene was found to facilitate to a larger extent the overcooling of phase I of solid cyclohexane than admixture of naphtalene.
