    Adam-Gibbs model in the density scaling regime and its implications for the configurational entropy scaling
    ([London] : Macmillan Publishers Limited, part of Springer Nature, 2015) Masiewicz, Elżbieta; Grzybowski, Andrzej; Grzybowska, Katarzyna; Pawlus, Sebastian; Pionteck, Jürgen; Paluch, Marian
    To solve a long-standing problem of condensed matter physics with determining a proper description of the thermodynamic evolution of the time scale of molecular dynamics near the glass transition, we have extended the well-known Adam-Gibbs model to describe the temperature-volume dependence of structural relaxation times, τα(T, V). We also employ the thermodynamic scaling idea reflected in the density scaling power law, τα = f(T−1V−γ), recently acknowledged as a valid unifying concept in the glass transition physics, to differentiate between physically relevant and irrelevant attempts at formulating the temperature-volume representations of the Adam-Gibbs model. As a consequence, we determine a straightforward relation between the structural relaxation time τα and the configurational entropy SC, giving evidence that also SC(T, V) = g(T−1V−γ) with the exponent γ that enables to scale τα(T, V). This important findings have meaningful implications for the connection between thermodynamics and molecular dynamics near the glass transition, because it implies that τα can be scaled with SC.

    Revealing Fast Proton Transport in Condensed Matter by Means of Density Scaling Concept
    (Washington, DC : Soc., 2020) Wojnarowska, Zaneta; Musiał, Małgorzata; Cheng, Shinian; Gapinski, Jacek; Patkowski, Adam; Pionteck, Jürgen; Paluch, Marian
    Herein, we investigate the charge transport and structural dynamics in the supercooled and glassy state of protic ionic material with an efficient interionic Grotthuss mechanism. We found that superprotonic properties of studied acebutolol hydrochloride (ACB-HCl) depend on thermodynamic conditions with the most favorable regions being close to the glass-transition temperature (Tg) and glass-transition pressure (Pg). To quantify the contribution of fast proton hopping to overall charge transport over a broad T–P space, we employed the density scaling concept, one of the most important experimental findings in the field of condensed matter physics. We found that isothermal and isobaric dc-conductivity (σdc) and dynamic light scattering (τα) data of ACB-HCl plotted as a function of (TVγ)−1 satisfy the thermodynamic scaling criterion with the ratio γσ/γα appearing as a new measure of fast charge transport in protic ionic glass-formers in the T–P plane. Such a universal factor becomes an alternative to the well-known Walden rule being limited to ambient pressure conditions.
