Sooner or later, you will have to tell us the complete process:  What is there first, why it is molten, and why do you add benzene, and why you have to do this process, this way.  We're going to need this information, before we even begin to help.  I think, at the temperatures camphor melts, benzene would likely evaporate, so I'm wondering where this process came from, and where it is going.

Hello. i want to store benzene as solid product to facilitate storage process. so i'm thinking to add benzene to Camphor to make it solid to avoid storage in tanks. kindly advise me. best regards,,,,

Still not understanding you.  Camphor is a solid.  Why dissolve it in a liquid, to make it a solid, when that will only make a liquid anyway.
