From a study of the system salicylic acid-biphenyl it was concluded that there was no compound formation in the system. The solution is very nearly ideal, having an eutectic temperature of 67.6℃ at a mole fraction of .903 for the biphenyl.

The system salicylic acid-diphenylamine was studied and no compound formation was found to be present. The system and no compound formation was found to be present. The system is not as ideal as the salicylic acid-biphenyl system, but follows the ideal solution curve fairly well. The system has an eutectic temperature of 48.5℃ at .926 mole fraction of diphenylamine.
