Abstract
The associating behaviour of undecylic acid has been studied by the determination of its dielectric properties. The correlation factor between molecular pairs was obtained with reference to the Kirkwood-Fröhlich theory and compared with the Abbott-Bolton model for non spherical molecules. The results indicate a high degree of association with number of dimers decreasing with increasing temperature.
