    Abstract:
    The relaxation dynamics of water-rich glycerol-water mixtures is studied by broadband dielectric spectroscopy (BDS) at 173-323 K and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) at 138-313 K. These data indicate the existence of the critical concentration of 40 mol % glycerol. In the studied temperature range for water-rich glycerol mixtures, the two states of water (ice and interfacial water) are observed in addition to water in the mesoscopic 40 mol % glycerol-water domains. The possible kinetics of water exchange between different water states is discussed in order to explain the mechanism of the broad melting behavior observed by DSC.
