Article Description

Here, we report the results of qualitative and quantitative investigations of the first-order phase transition in the ionic liquid 1-ethylpyridinium triflate exhibiting a high variability of temperature ranges, within which the freezing and melting occur. By two methods, the direct fast quenching/annealing and the slow temperature-controlled differential scanning calorimeter, it is revealed that despite the almost constant absolute enthalpies of phase transition, the freezing occurs faster with the larger temperature contrast (cooling rate) between the initially hotter sample and the colder surrounding. This feature is a clear exhibition of the Mpemba effect. The regularity in the change of the melting point is analyzed as well.
