Received on: 12-02-2013 ABSTRACT:

The dielectric spectra of Butanenitrile(BN) with Chlorobenzene(CBZ) mixture has been studied at temperature 100C in the frequency range of 10 MHz to 20 GHz using time domain reflectometry (TDR) for 11 different concentrations of the system. The dielectric parameters such as static dielectric constant (0) and relaxation time () have been obtained by Fourier transform and the least squares fit method. Kirkwood correlation factor (gf) and effective Kirkwood correlation factor (geff ) of the mixtures have been determined. The values of static dielectric constant are fitted in Bruggeman Model. In the mixtures the values of geff are less than one and it shows that there is antiparallel alignment of dipoles. The more deviation from Bruggeman parameter shows stronger interaction between the molecules in the mixture. KEY WORDS: Nitrile group, Chloro group, Dielectric parameters, Kirkwood Parameters, Bruggeman parameters.

INTRODUCTION: The dielectric relaxation study of molecular mixture at microwave frequencies gives information about formation of monomers and multimers as well as interaction between the molecules of the mixture et al Helambe (2000), Pawar (2002). The molecules taken for the study are Butanenitrile and Chlorobenzene. One is of nitrile group and other with chlorine group. It is interesting to see the effect of nitrile group with chlorinegroup. The objective of the present paper is to report the molecular interaction strength and also the correlation between butanenitrile and chlorobenzene mixture using TDR at 100C temperature.

J. Atoms and Molecules / 3(1); 2013 / 469473 MATERIALS & APPARATUS: A spectrograde Butanenitrile(BN) (Fluka cheme Gmbh-9471 Buchs, Steinheim, Swizerland) and AR grade Chlorobenzene(CBZ) ( E-Merck) were used without further purification The density and molecular weight of the liquids are as follows: Butanenitrile -density: 0.8329 gm cm-3; mol.wt.-67.09. Chlorobenzene-density: 1.105 gmcm-3; mol.wt.-112.56 The complex permittivity spectra were studied using the time domain reflectometry et al Cole(1989), Puranic(1991) method. The Hewlett Packard HP 54750 sampling oscilloscope with HP 54754A TDR plug in module has been used The change in the pulse after reflection from the sample placed in the cell was monitored by the sampling oscilloscope. The reflected pulse without sample Rl(t) and with sample Rx(t) were digitized in 1024 points in the memory of the oscilloscope and transferred to a PC through 1.44 MB floppy diskette drive. DATA ANALYSIS The time dependent data were processed to obtain complex reflection coefficient spectra () over the frequency range from 10 MHz to 20 GHz using Fourier transformation et al Shannon(1949), Shamulan(1951) as *()=(c/jd)[p()/q()] (1) Where p() and q() are Fourier transforms of [R1(t)-Rx(t)]) and [R1(t)+Rx(t)] respectively, c is the velocity of light, is angular frequency, d is the effective pin length and j= 1 . The complex permittivity spectra *() were obtained from reflection coefficient spectra () by applying bilinear calibration method et al Cole (1989). All rights reserved 2011

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION:


The Kirkwood correlation factor gf et al Frolhich (1949) is a parameter for getting information regarding orientation of electric dipoles in polar liquids. The gf for pure liquid may be obtained by the expression

where is dipole moment in gas phase, is density at temperature T, M is molecular weight, k is Boltzman constant, N is Avogadros number. The dipole moments for BN and CBZ in gas phase are taken as 3.91D and 1.69 D et al Weast (1983) respectively. For the mixture of two polar liquids 1, 2 Eq. (3) is modified by ref. et al Kumbharkhane (1993) with the following assumptions: 1. Assume that g for the binary mixture is expressed by an effective averaged correlation factor geff such that the Kirkwood equation for the mixture can be expressed by

2 2 eff (0m m )(20m +m ) 4N 12 1 1 + 2 2 g = 9kT M1 M2 0m (m +2)2 (4)

Assume that the correlation factors for molecules 1 and 2 in the mixture contribute to the effective g proportionality to their pureliquid values g1, g2. Under this assumption the Kirkwood equation for the mixture can be written

J. Atoms and Molecules / 3(1); 2013 / 469473 The values of geff are less than one and it indicates that there is antiparallel alignment of dipoles. The deviation of gf values from unity is more. The more deviation in gf values shows that stronger interaction between the constituent molecules in the system. The values of geff and gf are calculated from equation (4) and (5) for the mixtures of the system The modified Bruggeman equation et al Kumbharkhane (1993) is another parameter, which may be used an indicator of liquid 1 and 2 interaction.

According to equation (6), a linear relationship is expected which will give a straight line when plotted fB against 2. However, here the experimental values of fB were found to deviate from the linear relationship. The Bruggeman dielectric factor fB versus volume fraction 2 of BN at 10C is shown in Figure 2. To fit the experimental data, Eq.(6) has been modified et al Puranik (1994) fB=1-[a-(a-1)2]2 (7)

The Kirkwood correlation factors have been reported by the use of the dielectric parameters for BN-CBZ mixtures for 100C temperature and different 11-concentrations. The correlation of the chlorine group CBZ with the CN bonded liquid BN is discussed. It is found that the antiparallel alignment of the dipoles of the molecules of the mixture. It also shows that stronger interaction between the BN and CBZ molecules. The Bruggeman parameter also confirms that the stronger interaction between the constituent molecules of the mixture.

Where 'a' is numerical fitting parameter. The parameters a has been determined by the least squares fit method and it is found to be 0.761. The value of a = 1 corresponds to the ideal Bruggeman mixture formula. The deviation from 1 relates to interaction between corresponding liquids 1 and 2. The large deviation of a suggest that stronger interaction between BN and CBZ.
