Ltd., Exeter PREFACE Investigation of dielectric properties of liquids can lead to information con- cerning molecular interactions and the mechanism of molecular processes which go on in liquids. The results of such investigations are of great significance both theoretically and practically. Without a deep understanding of the mechanism of molecular movements and interactions there can be no successful solutions of problems such as the effective direction of chemico-technological processes, the discovery of the nature of physico-chemical processes in the biological sphere, synthesis of new materials satisfying specific requirements, and the contriving of rapid methods of analysis and control in chemical processes. Dielectric radiospectroscopy is one of the most sensitive means for the physico-chemical investigation of materials. Knowledge of the dielectric parameters of liquids is indispensable for the operation of a number of contemporary electrochemical and radiochemical enterprises, for the construction of various appliances for automatic control of chemical processes in the organic synthesis industry, and for the operation of equipment for metering costs of fuel, oil, etc. Dielectric data for liquids are indispensable for a wide circle of scientific workers specializing in various fields in physics, chemicstry, biology and medicine. This is clear from the great number of published works which provide information on the permittivity, dielectric loss, and relaxation phenomena in particular liquids and solutions over a wide range of frequencies and tempera- tures. Despite this wide field of applicability there has not been, until now, either at home or abroad, any reference book in which the numerous experimental investigations on the dielectric properties of liquids have been collected and systematized. The general reference books [1—4] contain selective collections of dielectric parameters for liquids outside the dispersion region. In reference [5] an attempt was made by the author to systematize di- electric data for pure liquids. None of the reference books deals with dispersion data for solutions such as Preface permittivity, dielectric loss, relaxation times and the distribution of relaxation times, and thermodynamic functions of dielectric relaxation. The present book aims to fill this gap and to make data on the dielectric parameters of binary solutions accessible to readers. It collects and systematizes numerous experimental results from 1892 to 1973 on the dielectric parameters of solutions. Critical analysis forms the basis of recommendations of the most reliable values for binary solutions taken from the original works. The book consists of four chapters. Chapter I gives the basic formulae which describe the dielectric properties of substances and relate the experimentally observed quantities to the parameters characteristic of the substance. Chapters II and III consist of tables giving the result of measurements of static permittivity, limiting high-frequency permittivity, permittivity and dielectric loss, relaxation time, coefficient of distribution of relaxation times, and also thermodynamic functions of dielectric relaxation over a wide range of temperatures and an extensive frequency variation for non-aqueous and aqueous solutions of in- organic and organic compounds. Chapter IV presents dielectric data in graphical form. At the end of each chapter section there are additional references to figures at the end of the book and to literature sources of experimental data which are not included elsewhere in the book. The author expresses his deep gratitude to Y. I. Gerasimov, corresponding member of the Academy of Sciences of the U.S.S.R., for his great interest in the present work and Professor M.I. Shakhparonov for valuable critical observations and useful advice. USE OF THE TABLES In certain cases several values are given for the dielectric quantities measured at the same temperatures and frequencies. This indicates that it is not possible to give preference to one or other of the sources. The tables for binary solutions of organic compounds are arranged accord- ing to the summary formulae of the components. In the summary formulae the symbols for the elements are placed in the order C, Η, Ν, Ο and thereafter in alphabetic order. The precedence of compounds is decided according to the number of atoms of carbon and thereafter the number of atoms of hydrogen and so on. For any binary mixture the first component is that which precedes the other according to the above rule. The various binary mixtures are then arranged according to the precedence of the first components. Under a given first com- ponent, the second components are similarly arranged according to their pre- cedence. Concentrations of solutions are expressed in the same units as in the original works. When a concentration refers to the first component the concentration symbol has the index 1 (0ι, Χγ, ννχ), and when it refers to the second com- ponent it has the index 2. Concentrations are expressed as percentages. In order to avoid repetition, values of permittivity which are shown in the tables of dielectric dispersion parameters § § 3, 4 chapter II and § § 3, 4 chapter III are not included in the tables of permittivity §§1,2 chapter II and §§1,2 chapter III. To obtain full details concerning the permittivity of systems it is essential to consult the tables accordingly. The first literature citation indicates the source of the values given in the table.

CHAPTER I FUNDAMENTAL FORMULAE DESCRIBING THE DIELECTRIC PROPERTIES OF LIQUIDS Results of theoretical and experimental investigations devoted to the pro- perties of dielectrics in static and alternating electric fields have been published in various books and monographs [5—16]. For information on the methods of calculating the experimental values given in the book and of establishing relationships between them we give the fundamental equations which describe the dielectric properties of liquids. Fora closer acquaintance with matters relating to these equations and to the experi- mental results reference may be made to the works cited in the text. The polarization of a dielectric is represented as the sum of the electronic Ρ , atomic P and orientational P polarization Q 0 P=P+P*+P. (i) E 0 The times for completion of polarization have the orders of magnitude Ρ ΙΟ"14 - 10Λ\Ρ 10'11 - ΙΟ"14 andP 10'10 seconds.
