Abstract
Regardless of the dependence on the thermal history and structure of the alkylbenzene the melting point of the LDPE—alkylbenzene binary system is a linear function of the composition for a concentration of the lowmolecular-weight component of up to 0.9–0.95 mass fraction. Annealing of LDPE — alkylbenzene binary systems at temperatures below their melting point leads to differentiation of solvents with respect to the level of thermodynamic affinity. The heat of fusion of LDPE crystals is 293±15 J/g.
