Dielectric studies of binary mixtures of n-propyl alcohol and ethylenediamine

Abstract

Dielectric constant (ε′) and dielectric loss (ε″) of n-propyl alcohol (PA), ethylenediamine (EDA) and their binary mixtures, for different mole fractions of ethylenediamine have been experimentally measured at 11·15 GHz microwave frequency. Values of density (ρ), viscosity (η) and square refractive index (nD2) of binary mixtures as well as those of pure liquids are reported. Excess square refractive index, viscosity and activation energy of viscous flow have also been estimated. These parameters have been used to explain the formation of complexes in the system. © Indian Academy of Sciences.
