The aggregation of metalloorganic nematogenic molecules of 4,4'-bis(he
xyloxy)azobenzene-palladium complex (AZPAC) is analyzed by using recen
t measurements of volume polarization of AZPAC. The dipolar electric m
oment of the AZPAC molecule has been measured. The average aggregation
number and also the energy required for this aggregation have been es
timated. The superparaelectric behavior of AZPAC has been thus explain
ed.
