We have studied the enthalpy relaxation of glassy glycerol prepared by quenching of the liquid in a top-loading type adiabatic calorimeter developed by our group. The glassy sample was prepared by plunging the sample cell into liquid nitrogen. The cooling rate, 5 K s−1, was about 100 times faster than the rate available in ordinary adiabatic calorimeters. The heat capacity of the rapidly quenched glass (RQG) was only slightly different from that of the normally quenched glass (NQG). RQG released much larger enthalpy than NQG and the relaxations started at a much lower temperature than the glass transition temperatures of NQG. We analyzed these data in terms of the Adam–Gibbs theory. We demonstrate that the relaxation is accelerated by the larger configurational entropy (prominent structural disorder).
