Abstract Precise static dielectric constants are reported for methanol, ethanol, andn-propanol at 10,25, and 40° C and at pressures up to 3 kbar. The measurements were carried out by a low-frequency bridge method using a threeterminal, all-glass cell. An uncertainty of 0.05% is claimed for the data. The results are compared to data from previous investigations, whith the agreement in the absolute magnitude poor but the agreement in the pressure coefficient reasonable in most cases. The data are analyzed in terms of the Kirkwood correlation factorg K as obtained from the Fröhlich equation. In all cases, theg K factor decreases with increased pressure. The problems involved in calculating this factor from the experimental data are discussed, and it is shown that the trends ing K are very dependent upon the assumptions made in isolating the liquid dipole moment from its gas-phase value. This fact also indicates that an interpretation of theg K values in terms of stepwise association of correlation dipoles is premature at this time.
