Experiments have been carried out to determine the solid-liquid phase diagrams of binary mixtures of FEFO, EDNP, BDNPA and BDNPF. Cooling curves for the mixtures give no indication of crystal formation. Penetration measurements indicate a glass transition for all of the mixtures below {minus}40 C. The existence of glassy states for the mixtures was confirmed by visual observation with a polarizing microscope. Thermomicroscopy has been used in the preliminary study of the phase behavior of four binary mixtures. So far no eutectic has been observed
