Key result
Melting / freezing pt.:
< 165 °C
Atm. press.:
1 018 hPa
Decomposition:
no
Sublimation:
no
Remarks on result:
not determinable
Remarks:
If a glass transition really exists, it would be lower than the Ring & Ball value, which is 165°C.

Glass Transistion (Tg) is actually a temperature range, rather than a specific temperature. The convention, however, is to report a single temperature defined as the midpoint of the temperature range, bounded by the tangents to the two flat regions of the heat flow curve.

If a glass transition really exists, it would be lower than the Ring & Ball value, which is 165°C (Ring & Ball value is defined by ASTM).

Conclusions:
If a glass transition really exists, it would be lower than the Ring & Ball value, which is 165°C (Ring & Ball value is defined by ASTM).
Executive summary:

The glass transition temperature of clacium zinc salts of oligomers of rosin was determined by differential scanning calorimetry and according to OECD guideline 102.If a glass transition really exists, it would be lower than the Ring & Ball value, which is 165°C (Ring & Ball value is defined by ASTM).
