Low-temperature heat capacity (C-p) and glass-transition temperature (T-g) values of the aqueous solutions of three simple aminoalcohols (hereafter abbreviated as AA); i.e., 2-aminoethanol (2AE), 3-amino-1-propanol (3A1P) and 1-amino-2-propanol (1A2P), were examined by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Both the 2AE and 3A1P aqueous solutions revealed gradual decrease of C-p values on cooling in an AA molar-fraction (x(AA)) in the range of 0.2-0.7, while displaying no crystallization. On the other hand, the 1A2P aqueous solutions revealed a C-p hump at the temperature slightly above T-g on both cooling and heating curves when the x(AA) approaches 0.19. The T-g values of the 1A2P solutions simultaneously displayed a maximum as a function of the x(AA), which suggests formation of an ordered aggregate structure with development of a certain hydrogen-bond network. We propose, as the origin of the anomalies, formation of a molecular-aggregate structure of nanometer-sized regions of two kinds; one region is composed of the hydrophilic groups of AA molecules and water molecules and the other of the hydrophobic groups of AA molecules.
