Abstract
We perform nuclear magnetic resonance, broadband dielectric spectroscopy, and differential scanning calorimetry studies to ascertain the dynamical behaviors of aqueous ethylene glycol (EG) solutions in silica pores over broad temperature ranges. Both translational and rotational motions are analyzed, and the pore diameter (2.4–9.2 nm) and the EG concentration (12–57 mol. %) are varied, leading to fully liquid or partially crystalline systems. It is found that the translational diffusion coefficient strongly decreases when the diameter is reduced, resulting in a slowdown of nearly three orders of magnitude in the narrowest pores, while the confinement effects on the rotational correlation times are moderate. For the fully liquid solutions, we attribute bulk-like and slowed down reorientation processes to the central and interfacial pore regions, respectively. This coexistence is found in all the studied pores, and, hence, the range of the wall effects on the solution dynamics does not exceed ∼1 nm. Compared to the situation in the bulk, the concentration dependence is reduced in confinements, implying that the specific interactions of the molecular species with the silica walls lead to preferential adsorption. On the other hand, bulk-like structural relaxation is not observed in the partially frozen samples, where the liquid is sandwiched between the silica walls and the ice crystallites. Under such circumstances, there is another relaxation process with a weaker temperature dependence, which is observed in various kinds of partially frozen aqueous systems and denoted as the x process.

Abstract
Combining differential scanning calorimetry, nuclear magnetic resonance, and broadband dielectric spectroscopy studies, we ascertain the glass transition of aqueous ethylene glycol (EG) solutions, in particular the effects of partial crystallization on their glassy slowdown. For the completely liquid solutions in the weakly supercooled regime, it is found that the dynamics of the components occur on very similar time scales, rotational and translational motions are coupled, and the structural (α) relaxation monotonously slows down with increasing EG concentration. Upon cooling, partial crystallization strongly alters the glassy dynamics of EG-poor solutions; in particular, it strongly retards the α relaxation of the remaining liquid fraction, causing a non-monotonous concentration dependence, and it results in a crossover from non-Arrhenius to Arrhenius temperature dependence. In the deeply supercooled regime, a recrossing of the respective α-relaxation times results from the Arrhenius behaviors of the partially frozen EG-poor solutions together with the non-Arrhenius behavior of the fully liquid EG-rich solutions. Exploiting the isotope selectivity of nuclear magnetic resonance, we observe different rotational dynamics of the components in this low-temperature range and determine the respective contributions to the ν relaxation decoupling from the α relaxation when the glass transition is approached. The results suggest that the ν process, which is usually regarded as a water process, actually also involves the EG molecules. In addition, we show that various kinds of partially crystalline aqueous systems share a common relaxation process, which is associated with the frozen fraction and differs from that of bulk hexagonal ice.

Abstract
A polarizable empirical force field for acyclic polyalcohols based on the classical Drude oscillator is presented. The model is optimized with an emphasis on the transferability of the developed parameters among molecules of different sizes in this series and on the condensed-phase properties validated against experimental data. The importance of the explicit treatment of electronic polarizability in empirical force fields is demonstrated in the cases of this series of molecules with vicinal hydroxyl groups that can form cooperative intra- and intermolecular hydrogen bonds. Compared to the CHARMM additive force field, improved treatment of the electrostatic interactions avoids overestimation of the gas-phase dipole moments resulting in significant improvement in the treatment of the conformational energies and leads to the correct balance of intra- and intermolecular hydrogen bonding of glycerol as evidenced by calculated heat of vaporization being in excellent agreement with experiment. Computed condensed phase data, including crystal lattice parameters and volumes and densities of aqueous solutions are in better agreement with experimental data as compared to the corresponding additive model. Such improvements are anticipated to significantly improve the treatment of polymers in general, including biological macromolecules.

Abstract
For low-water-content aqueous solutions, the primary α process due to the cooperative motion of solute and water molecules and the secondary Johari-Goldstein (JG) process of solute are observed. For high-water-content aqueous solutions, the α process due to the cooperative motion of solute and water molecules and the secondary β process due to the motion of excess water are observed. However, the JG process of solute has not been observed. To clarify this difference, we measured the dielectric spectra of supercooled triethyleneglycol-water mixtures in a wide temperature range. We discuss the effect of excess water on the molecular dynamics relating to the JG process of solute in high-water-content aqueous solutions.

Abstract
A simplified model of a hydrogen-bonding network is proposed in order to clarify the microscopic structure of the cooperative rearranging region (CRR) in Adam-Gibbs theory [G. Adam and J. H. Gibbs, J. Chem. Phys. 43, 139 (1965)]. Our model can be solved analytically, and it successfully explains the reported systematic features of the glass transition of polyhydric alcohols. In this model, hydrogen bonding is formulated based on binding free energy. Assuming a cluster of molecules connected by double hydrogen bonds is a CRR and approximating the hydrogen-bonding network as a Bethe lattice in percolation theory, the temperature dependence of the structural relaxation time can be obtained analytically. Reported data on relaxation times are well described by the obtained equation. By taking the lower limit of the binding free energy with this equation, the Vogel-Fulcher-Tammann equation can be derived. Consequently, the fragility index and glass transition temperature can be expressed as functions of the number of OH groups in a molecule, and this relation agrees well with the reported experimental data.

Abstract
We have investigated the glass transitions of trihydric alcohols using broadband dielectric spectroscopy, and compare the results with those previously reported for sugar alcohols. Although a systematic glass transition feature related to molecular size has been reported for sugar alcohols, the essential factor governing this feature is still unclear because the number of carbon atoms (N(C)) and the number of OH groups (N(OH)) per molecule are identical in sugar alcohols. By examining trihydric alcohols (N(C)≠N(OH)), we conclude that N(OH) is dominant for the characteristics of the slow dynamics, such as fragility and glass transition temperature. This result suggests that the topological structure of the hydrogen-bonding network (coordination number) plays an important role in the glass transition of polyhydric alcohols. Furthermore, the orientational correlation factor evaluated using the Kirkwood-Fröhlich theory reveals a similarity in hydrogen bond formation among a variety of polyhydric alcohols. Based on these two experimental results, we discuss a possible physical picture of the glass transition of polyhydric alcohols.

Abstract
We investigate the universality of the relaxation processes for high-water-content aqueous solutions in a supercooled and glassy state, to clarify the molecular dynamics of water in aqueous solutions. The appearance of the additional process at the crossover temperature is due to structured water arising, and it is a universal feature of aqueous solutions. The normalized relaxation strength of the beta process plotted against reciprocal temperature obeys -3 power law that is due the arrangement region of the water molecules through the tetrahedral hydrogen bond structure.

Abstract
Broadband dielectric measurements for triethyleneglycol (3EG)-water mixtures with various concentrations were performed in the frequency range of 10 muHz-10 GHz and in the temperature range of 130-298 K . For each mixture, the separation of the primary (alpha) and secondary processes is observed below the crossover temperature, TC. In the case of 80-100 wt% 3EG-water mixtures, the Kohlrausch-Williams-Watts-type primary process above TC continues to the alpha process below TC, and an additional secondary process is observed in the frequency range higher than that of the alpha process below TC. On the other hand, the primary process for 65 and 70 wt% 3EG-water mixtures above TC continues to the higher-frequency secondary process below TC, and an additional alpha process appears at a frequency lower than that of the secondary process. The contribution of water to relaxation processes is discussed, to clarify the molecular mechanism of the separation behavior. The characteristic separation behavior of the relaxation processes for high-water-content 3EG-water mixtures is due to the existence of excess water, which cannot move cooperatively with solute 3EG molecules below TC.

Abstract
There is a plethora of experimental data on the dynamics of water in mixtures with glycerol, ethylene glycol, ethylene glycol oligomers, poly(ethylene glycol) 400 and 600, propanol, poly(vinyl pyrrolidone), poly(vinyl methylether), and other substances. In spite of the differences in the water contents, the chemical compositions, and the glass transition temperatures Tg of these aqueous mixtures, a faster relaxation originating from the water (called the nu-process) is omnipresent, sharing the following common properties. The relaxation time tau(nu) has Arrhenius temperature dependence at temperatures below Tg of the mixture. The activation energies of tau(nu) all fall within a neighborhood of 50 kJ/mol. At the same temperature where mixtures are all in their glassy states, the values of tau(nu) of several mixtures are comparable. The Arrhenius temperature dependence of tau(nu) does not continue to higher temperatures and instead it crosses over to a stronger temperature dependence at temperatures above Tg. The dielectric relaxation strength of the nu-process, Deltaepsilon(nu)(T), has a stronger temperature dependence above Tg than below, mimicking the change of enthalpy, entropy, and volume when crossing Tg. These general property of the nu-process (except for the magnitude of the activation energy) had been found before in the secondary relaxation of the faster component in several binary nonaqueous mixtures. Other properties of the secondary relaxation in these nonaqueous mixtures have helped to identify it as the Johari-Goldstein (JG) secondary relaxation of the faster component. The similarities in properties lead us to conclude that the nu-processes in water mixtures are the JG secondary relaxations of water. The conclusion is reinforced by the processes behaving similarly to the nu-process found in 6 A thick water layer (two molecular layers) in fully hydrated Na-vermiculite clay, and in water confined in molecular sieves, silica hydrogels, and poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) hydrogels.

Abstract
The dielectric behaviour of aqueous solutions of glucose, poly(ethylene glycol)s (PEGs) 200 and 600, and poly(vinyl pyrrolidone) (PVP) has been examined at different concentrations in the frequency range of 10(6)-10(-3) Hz by dielectric spectroscopy and by using differential scanning calorimetry down to 77 K from room temperature. The shape of the relaxation spectra and the temperature dependence of the relaxation rates have been critically examined along with temperature dependence of dielectric strength. In addition to the so-called primary (alpha-) relaxation process, which is responsible for the glass-transition event at T(g), another relaxation process of comparable magnitude has been found to bifurcate from the main relaxation process on the water-rich side, which continues to the sub-T(g) region, exhibiting relaxation at low frequencies. The sub-T(g) process dominates the dielectric measurements in aqueous solutions of higher PEGs, and the main relaxation process is seen as a weak process. The sub-T(g) process was not observed when water was replaced by methanol in the binary mixtures. These observations suggest that the sub-T(g) process in the aqueous mixtures is due to the reorientational motion of the 'confined' water molecules. The corresponding dielectric strength shows a noticeable change at T(g), indicating a hindered rotation of water molecules in the glassy phase. The nature of this confined water appears to be anomalous compared to most other supercooled confined liquids.

Abstract
We performed broadband dielectric measurements of a polyethyleneglycol-water mixture in the frequency range between 10 GHz and 1 microHz and the temperature range between 300 and 133 K. One relaxation process is observed throughout the whole temperature range. The temperature dependence of the relaxation time clearly obeys the Vogel-Fulcher law above 183 K, and the Arrhenius law below 183 K. This observed relaxation process is the secondary process, and the primary process related to the glass transition is masked by the low-frequency ionic contribution below 183 K. The glass transition concerned with the masked primary process leads to the Vogel-Fulcher to Arrhenius transition of the secondary process.

Abstract
Broadband dielectric measurements for anhydrous tripropylene glycol (3PG) and 96, 92, 84, 80, 74, 71, and 68 wt % 3PG-water mixtures are performed in the frequency range of 10(-2)-10(7) Hz and in the temperature range of 123-243 K. We examined the effect of adding water into anhydrous 3PG on relaxation dynamics. Apart from the two well-known relaxation processes, i.e., alpha and beta for anhydrous 3PG we observed new relaxation peak (beta') for all aqueous mixtures of 3PG. In addition we found the critical mole fraction of water x(w)=0.67 in which relaxation dynamics changes its behavior. According to the Sudo approach [S. Sudo et al., J. Non-Cryst. Solids 307-310, 356 (2002)], the behavior of relaxation processes was interpreted assuming the existence of three kinds of cooperative domains (CDs): containing only 3PG molecules, including only water molecules, and including both 3PG and water molecules, which molecules of each kind CD are bound by hydrogen bonds.

Abstract
Broadband dielectric measurements for 65 wt % ethylene glycol oligomer (EGO)-water mixtures with one to six repeat units of EGO molecules were performed in the frequency range of 10 microHz-10 GHz and the temperature range of 128-298 K. In the case of the water-EGO mixtures with one and two repeat units of the EGO molecule (small EGO), the shape of the dielectric loss peak of the primary process is asymmetrical about the logarithm of the frequency of maximum loss above the crossover temperature, T(C). The asymmetric process continues to the alpha process at a low frequency, and an additional beta process appears in the frequency range higher than that of the alpha process below T(C). In contrast, the water-EGO mixtures with three or more repeat units of the EGO molecule (large EGO) show a broad and symmetrical loss peak of the primary process above T(C). The symmetric process continues to the beta process, and an additional alpha process appears in the frequency range lower than that of the beta process below T(C). These different scenarios of the alpha-beta separation related to the shape of the loss peak above T(C) are a result of the difference in the cooperative motion of water and solute molecules. The solute and water molecules move cooperatively in the small EGO-water mixtures above T(C), and this cooperative motion leads to the asymmetric loss peak above T(C) and the alpha process below T(C). For the large EGO-water mixtures, the spatially restricted motion of water confined by solute molecules leads to the symmetric loss peak above T(C) and the beta process below T(C).
