Abstract
The frequency dependence of the photoacoustic (PA) signal is investiga ted upon heating of poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) in the glass tran sition region. The frequency f vs reciprocal glass transition temperat ure T(g) data, obtained from the present PA measurements, are compared with those of the previous differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) in vestigation. The results are in good agreement with the theoretical mo dels of Avramov and Milchev and of Adam and Gibbs.
