Single crystal of β-DL-menthol grown from the ethanol:water mixture (2:1 v/v) under isochoric conditions in the DAC chamber: (a) spontaneous powder precipitation at 0.64 GPa viewed under polarized light, (b) one seed (indicated by the red arrow) at 365 K, (c) 323 K and (d) 0.64 GPa and 296 K. A large ruby chip for pressure calibration lies close to the centre of the chamber. |
