Ff. Hanna et al., STATIC PERMITTIVITY AND ASSOCIATION IN MIXTURES OF MONOHYDRIC AND DIHYDRIC ALCOHOLS, Zeitschrift fur Naturforschung. A, A journal of physical sciences, 50(8), 1995, pp. 785-786
The static permittivity has been measured for n-hexanol and n-dodecano
l in heptane solution on admixture of a minor (fixed) fraction of a di
hydric alcohol (ethanediol, 1,6-hexanediol or 1,12-dodecanediol) from
low to medium total alcohol concentrations. The 20 degrees C dispersio
n steps are reported. They show a more or less pronounced intensificat
ion due to the additive, which unexpectedly is smaller on addition of
two diols together than of only one diol. Probably this reflects compe
ting self- and hetero-association equilibria.
