The condensed structure of normal alkane (n-alkane) mixtures in confined geometry is an interesting topic concerning the difference in crystallization behavior of odd and even alkanes. In the present work, the crystallization of mixtures of normal octadecane (n-C18H38) and normal nonadecane (n-C19H40) in microcapsules with narrow size distribution was investigated using the combination of differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). A surface freezing monolayer for microencapsulated n-C18H38, n-C19H40, and their mixture was detected by DSC, which for the mixture is a mixed homogeneous crystalline phase with continuous change in the composition. A more stable rotator phase (RI) was observed for the microencapsulated n-C18H38/n-C19H40 = 95/5 (molar ratio) mixture, confirmed by an increased supercooling of the transition from RI to stable phase compared to that of the mixture in bulk, Two nucleation mechanisms were speculated as liquid-to-solid heterogeneous nucleation and solid-to-solid homogeneous nucleation, which occur at different crystallization stages in microcapsules and might be attributed to the surface effect and confinement effect, respectively, in the confined geometry.
