| Abstract | Dielectric relaxation spectra of two closely related glass formers, dipropylene glycol [H-(C3H6O)2-OH] and dipropylene glycol dimethyl ether [CH3-O-(C3H6O)2-CH3], were measured at ambient and elevated pressures in the supercooled and the glassy states are presented. Hydrogen bonds formed in dipropylene glycol are removed when its ends are replaced by two methyl groups to become dipropylene glycol dimethyl ether. In the process, the primary relaxation, the excess wing, and the resolved secondary relaxation of dipropylene glycol are all modified when the structure is transformed to become dipropylene glycol dimethyl ether. The modifications include the pressure and temperature dependences of these relaxation processes and their interrelations. Thus, by comparing the dielectric spectra of these two closely related glass formers at ambient and elevated pressures, the differences in the relaxation dynamics and properties in the presence and absence of hydrogen bonding are identified. |
