Several relaxation modes present in poly(propylene glycol) monobutyl ether [PPGMBE] were explored over a wide temperature range (120–310 K) and frequency band range (10 mHz–1.0 GHz) using wideband dielectric spectroscopy. Two resolvable secondary relaxations (β- and γ-processes) were observed below Tg, along with a structural relaxation mode (α-) above Tg. The β-relaxation process was well fitted with the Cole–Cole equation and was identified as true Johari Goldstein relaxation based on an aging experiment and a coupling model prediction. The spectra for the γ-process showed asymmetric behavior below Tg, hence it was well described by the Havriliak-Negami equation and did not show any of the peculiar behavior seen with many PPG families. The T-dependences of several dielectric properties, e.g., τα, τβ, τγ, τσ, and σdc, were thoroughly investigated. It was noticed that the T-variation of the relaxation time for the α-mode was not satisfactorily described with only one VFT equation, and the derivative plot indicated a crossover temperature of ~240 K. Our experimental findings demonstrated that a logarithmic plot of the σdc versus τα data showed nonlinear dependency and thus were expressed by the fractional Stokes-Einstein–Debye law, with a change in the exponent from ζ = −0.70 to −0.85 for high-T (>240 K) and low-T behavior (<240 K), respectively.

Broadband dielectric spectroscopy was employed to study the relaxation dynamics in poly(propylene glycol) monobutyl ether [PPGMBE]. Two relaxation processes (β- and γ-) were observed in the sub-Tg region, in addition to the α-process above Tg. The physical aging experiment performed below Tg suggested that the observed β-process is the genuine Johari Goldstein relaxation process and the γ-process is of intramolecular origin.

聚(丙二醇)单丁醚的初级和次级弛豫过程:宽带介电光谱研究

使用宽带介电光谱在较宽的温度范围 (120–310 K) 和频带范围 (10 mHz–1.0 GHz) 内探索了聚(丙二醇)单丁基醚 [PPGMBE] 中存在的几种弛豫模式。在T g以下观察到两个可分辨的二次弛豫(β-和 γ-过程) ,以及在T g以上的结构弛豫模式(α-)。β-弛豫过程与 Cole-Cole 方程非常吻合,并根据老化实验和耦合模型预测被确定为真正的 Johari Goldstein 弛豫。γ-过程的光谱显示低于T g的不对称行为,因此 Havriliak-Negami 方程很好地描述了它,并且没有显示出许多 PPG 系列中出现的任何特殊行为。对多种介电特性(例如τ ατ βτ γτ σσ dc )的 T 依赖性进行了彻底研究。注意到仅用一个 VFT 方程不能令人满意地描述 α 模式的弛豫时间的 T 变化,导数图表明交叉温度约为 240 K。我们的实验结果表明,对数图σ dcτ α数据显示非线性相关性,因此由分数 Stokes-Einstein-Debye 定律表示, 对于高 T (>240 K) 和低 T 行为 (<240 K),指数从ζ = −0.70 到 −0.85 变化), 分别。

宽带介电光谱用于研究聚(丙二醇)单丁基醚 [PPGMBE] 中的弛豫动力学。除了高于T g的 α 过程外,在亚T g区域还观察到两个弛豫过程(β-和 γ-)。在Tg以下进行的物理老化实验表明,观察到的 β 过程是真正的 Johari Goldstein 弛豫过程,而 γ 过程是分子内起源的
