The new face of the activation volume in glass forming systems
Abstract
This report proposes the solution of the long standing problem regarding the key property governing the pressure related dynamics in glass forming and complex systems: the determination of the apparent activation volume Va and its pressure dependence. Results are tested in the previtreous domain, up to P ~ 1.2 GPa, for glass forming diisobutyl phthalate (DIIP, low molecular weight liquid), isoctyloxycyanobiphenyl (8*OCB, liquid crystal), bisphenol A/epichlorohydrin (EPON 828, epoxy resin).
