Heat capacities and thermodynamic properties of MgBTC

A novel two-dimensional metal organic framework MgBTC [MgBTC(OCN)₂·2H₂O, where BTC = 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylate] has been synthesized solvothermally and characterized by single crystal XRD, powder XRD, FT-IR spectra. The low-temperature molar heat capacities of MgBTC were measured by temperature modulated differential scanning calorimetry (TMDSC) over the temperature range from 190 to 350 K for the first time. No phase transition or thermal anomaly was observed in the experimental temperature range. The thermodynamic parameters of MgBTC such as entropy and enthalpy relative to reference temperature of 298.15 K were derived based on the above molar heat capacities data. Moreover, the thermal stability and decomposition of MgBTC was further investigated through thermogravimetry (TG)-mass spectrometer (MS). Four stages of mass loss were observed in the TG curve. TG-MS curve indicated that the products of oxidative degradation of MgBTC are H₂O, N₂, CO₂ and CO. The powder XRD showed that the mixture after TG contains MgO and graphite.

The molar heat capacities C _p,m of 2,2-dimethyl-1,3-propanediol were measured in the temperature range from 78 to 410 K by means of a small sample automated adiabatic calorimeter. A solid-solid and a solid-liquid phase transitions were found at T-314.304 and 402.402 K, respectively, from the experimental C _p-T curve.

Heat capacities of perfluoropolyethers

The heat capacities at constant pressure of liquid perfluoropolyethers with different chain structures were determined above the glass transition temperature up to 480 K by means of differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The group contributions of the  O , CF₂ , and  CF(CF₃) were calculated as a function of the temperature. Anomalous behavior of ethereal oxygen in a perfluorinated chain, as previously found for group contributions to the glass transition and to the vaporization energy, was observed also for heat capacity where the oxygen contribution is consistently lower for perfluorinated polyoxides in comparison to the hydrogenated homologous. The jump in c_p at the glass transition follows a regular behavior in the sense that ΔC_p/beadmole is within the average range found by Wunderlich for the majority of polymers. Moreover, data obtained in the present work allow the prediction of c_p of perfluoropolyethers of whatever structure between T_g and 480 K. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
