Abstract
A review. Ion solvation and ion assocn. are key features of ion-solvent interactions, and their balance largely dets. structure, thermodn., and dynamics of electrolyte solns. Despite being studied for many years with various techniques, these effects are still intriguing because too often results obtained with different methods (each having its individual merits and limitations) cannot be connected properly due to lacking information. This review brings dielec. relaxation spectroscopy (DRS) as a further tool for soln. studies to the attention of the audience. The principles of DRS and the required instrumentation are briefly introduced. The major focus is on the kind of results obtained with this technique regarding ion solvation and assocn. and how this information compares with results obtained from other techniques.
