Abstract
For a large class of fluid dielectrics, that is for nondipolar substances, the Clausius-Mosotti,(CM),relationship between density,p, and relative dielectric permittivity, ∈, holds very well. It can be written as
where M is the molecular weight, N a is Avogardo’s number, and α is a molecular, or displacement polarizability. Measurements on members of the n-alkane family, for example, over a temperature range from 248 K to 373 K, and at pressure up to 350 MPa, show that the left-hand side of eq. 1 varies by not more than 1.5 to 2% (Scaife and Lyons, 1980).
