利用差示扫描量热法(DSC)研究了1,2-丙二醇在不同降温速率下的协同松弛行为，以曲线拟合方法获得非线性Adam-Gibbs焓松弛参数．结果表明，模型参数强烈依赖于降温速率．在较高降温速率下获得的模型参数和用比热频谱及介电方法得到的结果很接近．利用DSC测得的比热容数据和拟合结果估算了1,2-丙二醇体系非线性AG理论的两个主要微观参数，即协同重排域(CRR)尺寸z*和对应的位形态数量W*．结果表明，如果采用聚合物玻璃推荐的W*，则会导致1,2-丙二醇在玻璃化温度处的CRR中的分子数小于1．而如果采用Johari的方法，则可得到玻璃化温度处的CRR中约有3个1,2-丙二醇分子，但随之产生的W*却异常的大．利用Donth的热力学温度波动公式估算得到的1,2-丙二醇在玻璃化温度处的CRR中的分子数为355，这和Johari方法得到结果难以统一．表明对于小分子氢键液体而言，非线性AG理论中z*的物理意义应重新审视．     

Sn-Bi合金熔体可逆液液结构转变的研究

本文采用直流四电极电阻法研究了Sn-Bi系合金熔体在连续几轮的升降温过程中电阻率随温度的变化规律.结果表明,Sn-Bi合金熔体在连续几轮的升降温过程都出现了电阻率随温度的异常变化.由于电阻率是结构敏感物理参数之一,电阻率随温度的异常变化间接表明合金熔体发生了温度诱导的液态结构转变,而且转变具有一定的可逆性.对比纯锡和纯铋的电阻率实验结果,可以认为结构转变的可逆性主要与合金中Sn的有关.

Electron spin relaxation of triarylmethyl radicals in fluid solution

Electron spin relaxation times of a Nycomed triarylmethyl radical (sym-trityl) in water, 1:1 water:glycerol, and 1:9 water:glycerol were measured at L-band, S-band, and X-band by pulsed EPR methods. In H(2)O solution, T(1) is 17+/-1 micros at X-band at ambient temperature, is nearly independent of microwave frequency, and exhibits little dependence on viscosity. The temperature dependence of T(1) in 1:1 water:glycerol is characteristic of domination by a Raman process between 20 and 80 K. The increased spin-lattice relaxation rates at higher temperatures, including room temperature, are attributed to a local vibrational mode that modulates spin-orbit coupling. In H(2)O solution, T(2) is 11+/-1 micros at X-band, increasing to 13+/-1 micros at L-band. For more viscous solvent mixtures, T(2) is much shorter than T(1) and weakly frequency dependent, which indicates that incomplete motional averaging of hyperfine anisotropy makes a significant contribution to T(2). In water and 1:1 water:glycerol solutions continuous wave EPR linewidths are not relaxation determined, but become relaxation determined in the higher viscosity 1:9 water:glycerol solutions. The Lorentzian component of the 250-MHz linewidths as a function of viscosity is in good agreement with T(2)-determined contributions to the linewidths at higher frequencies.     

Stokes-Einstein relation in supercooled aqueous solutions of glycerol

The diffusion of glycerol molecules decreases with decreasing temperature as its viscosity increases in a manner simply described by the Stokes-Einstein relation. Approaching the glass transition, this relation breaks down as it does with a number of other pure liquid glass formers. We have measured the diffusion coefficient for binary mixtures of glycerol and water and find that the Stokes-Einstein relation is restored with increasing water concentration. Our comparison with theory suggests that adding water postpones the formation of frustration domains.     

Electron spin-lattice relaxation of nitroxyl radicals in temperature ranges that span glassy solutions to low-viscosity liquids

Electron spin-lattice relaxation rates, 1/T1, at X-band of nitroxyl radicals (4-hydroxy-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin-1-oxyl, 4-oxo-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin-1-oxyl, 3-carbamoyl-2,2,5,5-tetramethylpyrrolidin-1-oxyl and 3-carbamoyl-2,2,5,5-tetramethylpyrrolin-1-oxyl) in glass-forming solvents (decalin, glycerol, 3-methylpentane, o-terphenyl, 1-propanol, sorbitol, sucrose octaacetate, and 1:1 water:glycerol) at temperatures between 100 and 300K were measured by long-pulse saturation recovery to investigate the relaxation processes in slow-to-fast tumbling regimes. A subset of samples was also studied at lower temperatures or at Q-band. Tumbling correlation times were calculated from continuous wave lineshapes. Temperature dependence and isotope substitution (2H and 15N) were used to distinguish the contributions of various processes. Below about 100K relaxation is dominated by the Raman process. At higher temperatures, but below the glass transition temperature, a local mode process makes significant contributions. Above the glass transition temperature, increased rates of molecular tumbling modulate nuclear hyperfine and g anisotropy. The contribution from spin rotation is very small. Relaxation rates at X-band and Q-band are similar. The dependence of 1/T1 on tumbling correlation times fits better with the Cole-Davidson spectral density function than with the Bloembergen-Purcell-Pound model.     

Correlation Between Segmental Dynamics,Glass Transition,and Lithium Ion Conduction in Poly(Methyl Methacrylate)/Ionic Liquid Mixture

A solid-state membrane of a polymer/ionic liquid miscible mixture, poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) and 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate (BMIMPF₆) doped with lithium perchlorate (LiClO₄), was prepared and characterized. Miscibility, segmental dynamics, glass transition and ionic conductivity were investigated. Based on the results from differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and dynamic mechanical thermal analysis (DMTA), the system is fully miscible and of single phase. Broadening of the glass transition was observed when increasing the amount of ionic liquid, which can be attributed to mobility and flexibility differences between the polymer and ionic liquid. A large dynamical asymmetry and intrinsic mobility difference allow segmental and structural motion/relaxation over a wider temperature range by increasing the amount of ionic liquid. Saturation recovery spin–lattice relaxation time (T₁) versus temperature obtained from ⁷Li nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) showed high mobility of lithium ions, which was almost temperature independent. Lithium ion conductivity significantly increases with increasing ionic liquid amount. It is concluded that lithium ion mobility and its conduction is positively correlated to segmental dynamics of ion carriers in this model system, which is more noticeable in mixtures with higher amounts of the ionic liquid.

Mechanical spectrum study of glass transition by a composite method

Normalized mechanical spectra of glycerol, 1,2-propanediol carbonate and poly(vinyl chloride)/di(2-ethyl-hexyl) phthalate (PVC/DOP) blends were studied in the temperature range from 100 to 300 K by a composite method. The dynamic glass transition was observed, which exhibits a peak of temperature-dependent loss modulus. The peak moves toward higher temperature with higher measuring frequency, which accords with the relaxation feature of the dynamic glass transition. Another characteristic temperature can be marked in the mechanical spectrum by the onset of storage modulus change, which is labeled as T_gm. T_gm is found to be nearly equal to the calorimetric glass transition temperature in glycerol, 1,2-propanediol carbonate and di(2-ethyl-hexyl) phthalate. As we expected, this onset temperature in the mechanical spectrum has an intimate relation with the calorimetric glass transition of materials, and it can be regarded as a representative when the calorimetric glass transition temperature is not available. Finally, normalized mechanical spectra of PVC/DOP blends with different PVC content were obtained and mechanical glass transition temperatures T_gm were determined.     

Study on the temperature distribution of heated falling liquid films

A 2-D theoretical model was derived to present the temperature distribution of falling liquid films flowing over a vertical heated/cooled plate with constant temperature. And the temperature gradients for different flow rates and fluids were also discussed for different liquid films. The temperature distributions for liquid films of water, ethanol aqueous solutions and glycerol aqueous solutions were experimentally investigated with a sensitive thermal imaging system. It is found that the surface temperature of a film flowing over a vertical heated solid plate has a characteristic relationship with the film flow distance. A lower flow rate of the film or a higher temperature of the wall generally leads to a higher surface temperature in the film inception. For films of glycerol aqueous solutions under the same heating conditions, a lower glycerol concentration causes a higher surface temperature of the film, due to the decrease of the liquid viscosity, whereas the ethanol concentration is found to have little influence on the temperature distribution of the film surface. Comparisons of the experimental data and the theoretical model show that the model can adequately describe the surface temperature distribution of a heated falling liquid film.     

Glass transition and enthalpy relaxation of polyphosphate compounds

The glass transition behaviour of polyphosphate compounds such as di- and tri- polyphosphates used as food additives and ATP, ADP existing in biosystems, were investigated by using DSC. From the DSC heating curves of the frozen solutions, the glass transition temperatures of the maximum freeze concentrated solutions, Tg', were determined. It was found that Tg's for polyphosphates are relatively high. The lyophilized tripolyphosphates, ATP and ADP also showed the glass transition at a relatively high temperature, depending on the moisture content. In addition, the enthalpy relaxation behaviour of glassy ATP and ADP was examined and analyzed by using the Kohlrausch-Williams-Watts (KWW) and the Vogel-Fulcher-Tammann (VFT) equations. Judging from the parameters of the KWW and VFT equations, the amorphous states of ATP and ADP were suggested to be more fragile than trehalose and sucrose.
