Abstract

Two-step kinetic crystallization processes from the glass-likedisordered state of N-(4-nitrophenyl)-(L)-prolinol have been found duringthe monitoring of the time evolution of dielectric strength and these arediscussed within steady state theory. The dynamics of structure relaxationin the disordered state have been investigated by broadband dielectricspectroscopy. The temperature dependence of the relaxation times isdescribed by the Vogel-Fulcher equation with an anomalous pre-exponentialparameter. The anomaly is discussed within the framework of the two-orderparameter model of glass formation proposed by H Tanaka (1999 J.Chem. Phys. 111 3163; 1998 J. Phys.: Condens. Matter 10L207).
