Corresponding States of Structural Glass Formers. II
The earlier paper of this same title demonstrated a collapse of relaxation data of fragile supercooled glass forming liquids [J. Phys. Chem. B 2009, 113, 5563-5567]. For temperature T below that of the onset to supercooled behavior, T-o, the logarithm of structural relaxation time, log tau, is given by the parabolic form log(tau/tau(o)) = J(2)(1/T - 1/T-o)(2), where J and tau(o) are temperature-independent. This paper presents further applications of this formula. In particular, it is shown that the effects of attractive forces in numerical simulation of glass-forming liquids can be logically organized in terms of J and T-o. Further, analysis of experimental data for several systems suggests that J and T-o are material properties. In contrast, values of similar parameters for other fitting formulas are shown to depend not only upon the material but also upon the range of data used in fitting these formulas. Expressions demonstrated to fail in this way include the Vogel-Fulcher-Tammann formula, a double-exponential formula, and a fractional exponential formula.
