Methodology:
The synthetic method was used. A Reichert microscope, type RCH, with a heating stage was used. A 26 x 38 mm slide was adapted to hold capillaries on the stage. Two glass strips were glued, using water glass, to the slide, leaving a 0.5 mm channel. The slide was then placed in the adjustable device of the heating stage. (1) and (2) were put into capillary tubing (0.2-0.3 mm diameter) by dipping consecutively into both liquids. The height of the liquid was 7-10 mm. Room temperature solids were melted on a glass slide over a microburner. The capillary was sealed at both ends to a length of 30-35 mm, then inserted in to the channel on the slide and heated on the stage. The UCST was determined by following the appearance and disappearance of the meniscus.
