Dielectric Study of Methyl Acrylate-Alcohol Mixtures Using Time Domain Reflectometry

摘要

Dielectric studies of methyl acrylate with 1-propanol,1-butanol,1-heptanol and 1-octanol binary mixtures have been carried out over the frequency range from 10 MHz to 10 GHz at temperatures of 283,293,303 and 313 K using Time Domain Reflectometry (TDR) for various concentrations.The Kirkwood correlation factor and excess inverse relaxation time were determined and discussed to yield information on the molecular structure and dynamics of the mixture.The values of the static dielectric constant,relaxation time and the Kirkwood correlation factor decrease with increased concentration of methyl acrylate in alcohol.The Bruggman plot shows a non-linearity of the curves for all the systems studied indicates the heterointeraction which may be due to hydrogen bonding of the-OH group of alcohol with C=0 of the methyl acrylate.The excess inverse relaxation time values are negative for all the systems at all the temperatures indicates that the solute-solvent interaction hinders the rotation of the dipoles of the system.
