I have a question, maybe you can help me on this.
I have small single crystals of an organic compound, A.
By heating these crystals at about 300 C, a decomposition of A takes place
(nothing wrong, yet) with about 20 percent mass loss. The obtained compound is
in crystalline form, and it seems exactly like A (small needles, crystals-like);
there is no melting or sublimation below 300 (the crystals are too small for a
four-circle tentative).
It this possible ?
Thank you,
