The crystals and the powder samples of β-alanine were studied in the wide temperature range by adiabatic calorimetry, differential scanning calorimetry, IR- and Raman spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction. No phase transitions could be observed. A small anomaly observed at about 256 K in the Cp(T) dependences measured for the samples re-crystallized from water was shown to be due to the presence of a small (about 0.14% of the total sample mass) amount of solvent inclusions. This anomaly was not observed in the solvent-free samples, either powders or single crystals.
