Temperature dependent ultrasonic and conductivity studies in aqueous polymeric solution
Sound velocities, viscosity and density of aqueous Solution of PEG of average molecular weight of 4000 g/mole have been measured as a function of temperature ill the range 308-338 K at different frequencies. Isentropic compressibility, ultrasonic attenuation and acoustic impedance have been derived from the data. From velocity measurements it has been found that velocity changes near melting temperature Clue to change in the lattice of polymer. Changes in polymer lattice call also be monitored by complex impedance spectroscopy hence, real and imaginary part of the impedance of mixture of PEG with water were measured in the frequency range 40 Hz to 100 kHz in the same temperature range. From these data bulk electrical conductivity has been calculated. The results have been discussed in terms of molecular interaction occuring in the solution, (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V.
