Quasi-continuous melting of model polymer monolayers prompts reinterpretation of polymer melting

Condensed matter textbooks teach us that melting cannot be continuous and indeed experience, including with polymers and other long-chain compounds, tells us that it is a strongly first-order transition. However, here we report nearly continuous melting of monolayers of ultralong n-alkane C(390)H(78...
