Kinetic processes in electrolyte solutions in high frequency electric fields

Zusammenfassung

High frequency permittivity measurements (1-40 GHz) are analyzed to yield information on kinetic processes in aq. and nonaq. electrolyte solns. Information is obtained on the low and high frequency relaxation times of the solvent and their shifts by addn. of electrolytes, rotational relaxation times of ion pairs, assocn. consts., rate consts. of ion-pair formation and decompn., and kinetic depolarization. Examples are given for each process.
