Abstract
The identification and characterization of phase transitions in organic, inorganic and polymeric materials is of obvious and general importance. For example, the technological importance of the temperature that marks a discontinuity in the chemical or mechanical properties of a material will frequently determine the usefulness of a material for a given application. The melting point is one such temperature; however, it frequently occurs that the temperature of a solid-solid phase transition is more important in this respect.
