Dielectric investigations of pure and mixed fluorocarbons in their condensed phases

1991

We review recent work and present new results on the liquid and solid fluocarbons CMF3 with M = H, F, Cl, Br, CH3, and CF3. The pure compounds as well as several series of binary mixtures were investigated using dielectric measurements. The permittivities of the non-hydrogenatcd non-polar and polar liquids could be described using the Clausius-Mosotti and the Onsager equation, respectively. In CHF3 and C2H3F3 hydrogen bridging leads to deviations from this simple behavior. The trends in the miscibility of four series of fluorocarbon mixtures are in qualitative accord with regular solution theory. The geometrical shapes of the compounds dominate the degrees of order below their melting point…
