Abstract
The ultrasonic velocity, adiabatic compressibility, relaxation time, r elaxation amplitude and Rao's number are reported for poly (methylmeth acrylate) (PMMA) solution in Dioxane at different concentrations and t emperatures. The results show a non linear increase of ultrasonic velo city, density, viscosity, relaxation time, relaxation amplitude with i ncreasing PMMA concentration. However, the adiabatic compressibility a nd Rao's number decrease with increase in concentration of PMMA indica ting the interaction between the Dioxane and PMMA molecules.
