We present a new method that allows direct measurements of the glass transition temperature T_{g} at pressures up to 4.55 GPa in the glass-forming liquid cumene (isopropylbenzene). This new method uses a diamond anvil cell and can measure T_{g} at pressures of 10 GPa or greater. Measuring T_{g} at the glass→liquid transition involves monitoring the disappearance of pressure gradients initially present in the glass, but also takes advantage of the large increase in the volume expansion coefficient α_{p} at T_{g} as the supercooled or superpressed liquid is entered. Accurate T_{g}(P) values in cumene allow us to show that density scaling holds along this isochronous line up to pressures much higher than any previous study, corresponding to a density increase of 29%. Our results for cumene over this huge compression range yield ρ^{γ}/T=C, where C is a constant and where γ=4.77±0.02 for this nonassociated glass-forming system. Finally, high-pressure cumene viscosity data from the literature taken at much lower pressures and at several different temperatures, corresponding to a large dynamic range of nearly 13 orders of magnitude, are shown to superimpose on a plot of η vs ρ^{γ}/T for the same value of γ. |
