Communication: Thermodynamic scaling of the Debye process in primary alcohols

Abstract: The molecular dynamics of hydrogen-bonded liquids usually does not satisfy the thermodynamic scaling. However, very recently, two opposite conclusions about validity of thermodynamical scaling in monohydroxy alcohol, 2-ethyl-1-hexanol, were presented by Reiser et al. [J. Chem. Phys. 132, 181101 (2010)] and Fragiadakis et al. [J. Chem. Phys. 132, 144505 (2010)]. In this communication we present new experimental results that can explain this ostensible contradiction.

“…The three alkanols (methanol, ethanol, and 1-propanol) and two alkoxyethanols deviate from the φ(γ ) behavior given by the rest of compounds analyzed in this work, giving values lower than those to be expected from the γ exponents. Recent results on the scaling of relaxation times of 2-ethyl-1-hexanol performed by Pawlus et al, 31 Reiser et al, 32 and Fragiadakis et al 33 suggest that materials with strong H-bond interactions only conform with the scaling concept over limited ranges of pressure, as eventually a pressure is reached above which the scaling parameter increases with the relaxation time. Thus it is not unexpected that the behavior of alcohols deviates from that of the other compounds considered here.…”

“…The exponent γ of the thermodynamic scaling can also be estimated as the slope of the logarithmic plot of T g vs v g 48 , where v g is the specific volume at the glass transition, or in general from the slope of ln( T ) vs ln( v ) under isochronal conditions 38 . Figure 6(b) shows the semilogarithmic plot of τ α for each of the four isobaric measurements (Fig.…”

“…Therefore, a change from slower to faster than exponential behavior in η would be reflected in τ α . Pawlus et al have show that for two monoalcohols this coupling, as well as thermody- namic scaling, only holds under a threshold pressure 37,38 . As shown in Fig.…”
