In their comment, Bogdan and Loerting1 (hereafter called BoLo) question the validity of the experimental data of Lienhard et al. (hereafter called LZZKP) concerning the glass transition temperatures (T_g) of binary aqueous citric acid and aqueous malonic acid solutions. BoLo present own measurements and find disagreements between their results and the results published by LZZKP. In this reply, we show calorimetric thermograms from which the results published by LZZKP are derived and discuss why BoLo’s criticisms are unjustified. Below, we address each of the four claims.
