Natural menthol is obtained by freezing peppermint oil. The resultant crystals of menthol are then separated by filtration. Total world production of menthol in 1998 was 12,000 tonnes of which 2,500 tonnes was synthetic. In 2005, the annual production of synthetic menthol was almost double.
A phase diagram for a fictitious binary chemical mixture (with the two components denoted by A and B) used to depict the eutectic composition, temperature, and point. ( L denotes the liquid state.) A eutectic system or eutectic mixture ( / j uː ˈ t ɛ k t ɪ k / yoo- TEK -tik ) [ 1 ] is a type of a homogeneous mixture that has a melting point ...

The contribution of the muscle to the specific heat of the body is approximately 47%, and the contribution of the fat and skin is approximately 24%. The specific heat of tissues range from ~0.7 kJ · kg−1 · °C−1 for tooth (enamel) to 4.2 kJ · kg−1 · °C−1 for eye (sclera).
Fermi melting point of valence electrons for superconductivity; 14.01 K, melting point of bound hydrogen; 20.28 K, boiling point of bound hydrogen; 33 K, critical temperature of hydrogen
Freezing is a phase transition in which a liquid turns into a solid when its temperature is lowered below its freezing point. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] For most substances, the melting and freezing points are the same temperature; however, certain substances possess differing solid-liquid transition temperatures.
This energy includes the contribution required to make room for any associated change in volume by displacing its environment against ambient pressure. The temperature at which the phase transition occurs is the melting point or the freezing point, according to context. By convention, the pressure is assumed to be 1 atm (101.325 kPa) unless ...
