We have determined the complex dielectric spectra of 2-propanol/water mixtures employing time domain reflectometry for the entire mixing range in 0.1⩽ν/GHz⩽25 at 20 °C, 25 °C, and 30 °C. At the specific concentrations, a frequency range was expanded up to 89 GHz with the help of waveguide interferometry. The excess activation free energy, ΔGE, enthalpy, ΔHE, and entropy, ΔSE, and their partial molar quantities, ΔGiE, ΔHiE, and ΔSiE [i=2-propanol (2PA) and water (W)] were derived from the relaxation time of the cooperative process, τ1. In the water-rich region, ΔHE and ΔSE exhibit conspicuous behavior with large positive values, which suggests an increase of the “time averaged” number and the strength of H-bonds. τ1 becomes considerably larger for 2-propanol/water than that for 1-propanol/water, resulting in ∼10% larger maxima of ΔH and ΔS. This indicates that the steric hindrance caused by the nonpolar group is more efficient for the branched isopropyl unit than that for the linear n-propyl moiety in prev...
