  • Time-Resolved Light Scattering Study on the Kinetics of the Liquid-Liquid Transition in Triphenyl Phosphite.
    The journal of physical chemistry. B, 2015
    Co-Authors: Mika Kobayashi, Ryotaro Shimizu, Hajime Tanaka
    Abstract:

    There is experimental evidence suggesting the existence of a liquid–liquid transition (LLT) in a single-component liquid. However, none of this evidence is free from controversy, including the case of a molecular liquid, Triphenyl Phosphite, which we study here. Furthermore, the kinetics of LLT has been largely unexplored. Here we study the phase-transition dynamics of Triphenyl Phosphite in a supercooled liquid state by means of time-resolved polarized and depolarized small-angle light scattering to clarify whether the transition is a liquid–liquid transition (LLT) or merely nanocrystal formation. A part of this study was recently reported in another of our papers [Shimizu, R.; Kobayashi, M.; Tanaka, H. Phys. Rev. Lett. 2014, 112, 125702]. A detailed analysis of our experimental results of light scattering and the comparison with heat evolution during LLT have revealed the following facts. The polarized scattering from domains has a finite (nonzero) intensity in the low-wavenumber limit, and the time evo...

A detailed analysis of our experimental results of light scattering and the comparison with heat evolution during LLT have revealed the following facts. The polarized scattering from domains has a finite (nonzero) intensity in the low-wavenumber limit, and the time evolution of its average intensity is almost proportional to the square of the heat-releasing rate. The depolarized scattering intensity monotonically increases in the process of LLT during isothermal annealing above the spinodal temperature TSD but exhibits a peak below TSD. On the basis of these results, we suggest that the primary process is LLT, whose order parameter is of a nonconserved nature, but accompanies nanocrystal formation. In the NG-type LLT, the sharp interface between liquid II droplets and the liquid I matrix promotes nanocrystal formation there, whereas much less nanocrystal formation is induced in the SD-type LLT due to the lack of such sharp interfaces.

  • Dynamic Nature of the Liquid-Liquid Transition of Triphenyl Phosphite Studied by Simultaneous Measurements of Dielectric and Morphological Evolution
    AIP Conference Proceedings, 2008
    Co-Authors: Ken-ichiro Murata, Rei Kurita, Hajime Tanaka
    Abstract:

    We performed broadband dielectric measurements for the process of liquid‐liquid transformation in Triphenyl Phosphite (TPP). According to our dielectric measurements, the static dielectric constant monotonically decreases and the distribution of the relaxation time becomes broader during the liquid‐liquid transformation from liquid I to II. The direct comparison with morphological evolution provides key information on the dynamical and structural evolution during LLT.

  • Microscopic structural evolution during the liquid-liquid transition in Triphenyl Phosphite
    Journal of Physics: Condensed Matter, 2007
    Co-Authors: Rei Kurita, Yuya Shinohara, Yoshiyuki Amemiya, Hajime Tanaka
    Abstract:

    Recently the liquid?liquid transition (LLT) was found in a molecular liquid, Triphenyl Phosphite, which allows us to follow the kinetics of the transformation of one liquid to another. Here we investigate the microscopic structural change during the LLT by means of time-resolved synchrotron x-ray scattering measurements. We confirm that during spinodal-decomposition-type transformation a new peak corresponding to a particular intermolecular phosphor?phosphor distance emerges and grows with time. This indicates that short-range order develops in the liquid during LLT. We show that the short-range order does not represent the crystalline structure, but the locally favoured structure. We found that the temporal increase of the intensity of this peak, i.e., the fraction of locally favoured structures, is proportional to that of the heat released during the transformation. This means that the formation of locally favoured structures is the origin of the heat release. This is consistent with the proposal that the order parameter governing LLT is the number density of locally favoured structures. This yields a valuable insight into the nature of the ordering in the liquid?liquid transition.

  • observation of equilibrium liquid liquid transition in Triphenyl Phosphite
    Chemical Physics Letters, 2013
    Co-Authors: Yukio Terashima, Kiyoshi Takeda, M. Tsuchie, M. Honda
    Abstract:

    Abstract The thermal signature of an equilibrium liquid–liquid transition (LLT) in Triphenyl Phosphite was detected by differential scanning calorimetry measurements at a fast heating rate reaching 500 K min −1 . The estimated temperature, enthalpy, and entropy of the LLT were 241.7 K, 12.0 kJ mol −1 , and 49.5 J K −1  mol −1 , respectively. The estimated residual entropy for a glacial sample prepared at 224.7 K was 6 J K −1  mol −1 ; this value is much smaller than that for the normal glassy liquid. This glacial state was found to be a highly ordered liquid compared with the normal glassy liquid in terms of entropy.
