      How to obtain the specific heat of the volatile component itself in the mixture within DEFINE_DPM_SOURCE (name, c, t, S, strength, tp)?

      Most of the materials are set as you've found and then used in a mixed form in the cells. The various cell values can be found in the documentation.

      There is no documented access to the material property routines. The simplest thing is to change the specific heat property to a user defined property that calls a function to evaluate the specific heat as a function of temperature. Then you can call the same function anywhere else in the code where you need it.
