Vitamin-A acetate is one of the most versatile vitamins. It is applied in medicine because of its antioxidative properties, in tumor therapy because of its cytostatic activity, and in cosmetics because of its nutritional additives. Herein, using broadband dielectric spectroscopy, the molecular dynamics of supercooled and glassy vitamin-A acetate was investigated. It was shown that dielectric measurements carried out at ambient and elevated pressures reveal a number of relaxation processes associated with different types of molecular motions: alpha, delta, and nu processes-observed above the glass transition temperature and the next two modes: beta and gamma identified in the glassy state. The occurrence of the delta mode in the dielectric spectrum may imply the existence of nanoscale domains with nematic order. This hypothesis is further checked by atomic force microscopy measurements. Finally, we have determined the value of the glass transition temperature (T-g) as well as the steepness index (m(P)) at various T-P conditions.
