The thermal analysis of the clusters’ bond energies
permits to discover the soft structural transitions be-
tween dominating isomers of clusters, the width of
the transition zone falling with the growth of the iso-
mers’ bond energy difference;
The thermal analysis of the pair bond energies in
many gases discovers the growth of the bond energy
at lowering the temperature that may be connected
with the limited rotation of interacting atoms or mo-
lecules;
In no polar molecules, containing Hydrogen, as in Al-
kanes, the new thermal analysis method discovers the
pair bond energy growth with temperature that points
to a possible presence of the thermally activated in-
termolecular forces;
Large values of bond energies for polar molecular
clusters open possibilities for alternative methods of
their investigation, including the spectroscopic meth-
ods.
The complex utilization of the new thermal analysis
method and spectroscopy methods may be very produc-
tive.
