Long Wavelength Thermal Density Fluctuations in Molecular and Polymer Glass-Forming Liquids: Experimental and Theoretical Analysis under Isobaric Conditions

Baicheng Mei et al.

Summary: Through in-depth analysis of experimental data, it was found that the dimensionless compressibility of one-component normal and supercooled liquids of chemically complex nonpolar and weakly polar molecules and polymers follows a simple and general temperature dependence over a wide range of pressures and temperatures. Although hydrogen-bonding liquids display more complex behavior, a new approach was formulated to collapse the temperature- and pressure-dependent dimensionless compressibility data onto a master curve. The dimensionless compressibility scales well as an inverse power law with temperature, with an exponent that decreases with pressure.

Polymer Glass Formation: Role of Activation Free Energy, Configurational Entropy, and Collective Motion

Wen-Sheng Xu et al.

Summary: The perspective provides insights into the theory and development of polymer glass formation, focusing on the role of fluid entropy and collective particle motion. It traces the evolution of the entropy theory from observations of liquid dynamics to the formulation of predictive models like the Adam-Gibbs model. The development of the generalized entropy theory and string model have advanced the understanding of polymeric glass formation dynamics.

Experimental test of a predicted dynamics-structure-thermodynamics connection in molecularly complex glass-forming liquids

Baicheng Mei et al.

Summary: Understanding the activated dynamics in diverse glass-forming liquids over a wide time range is a challenge in physics, physical chemistry, and materials science. Currently, there is still a lack of a predictive theory that covers both noncooperative and cooperative relaxation. Experimental data has validated a recent microscopic dynamical theory prediction, providing a different conceptual view of the global relaxation map.
