Notes:
     Compiler: Phase diagram shows formation of a 1:1 naphthalene - 2,4,6-trinitrophenol molecular compound. The two eutectic points occur at about x1 = 0.059 and T/K = 382.6 and at 1 > 0.95 and T/K = 345.6.

Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
   Phase diagram was determined using a thaw-melt method (described in detail in Rastogi and Nigam, Proc. Natl. Inst. Sci. India 1960, 26, 184).

Source and Purity of Materials:
   (1) Purity and chemical source were not specified in paper, was recrystallized before use.
   (2) Purity and chemical source were not specified in paper, was recrystallized before use.

Estimated Errors:

   Temperature: T/K: precision ± 0.1. x1: ± 0.0001 (compiler).
