Study of dielectric properties of a quaternary microemulsion system composed of water, oil, a nonionic surfactant, and an alcohol, in the frequency range 100 kHz – 15 GHz is reported as a function of salt (NaCl) concentration. Depending on the salinity, the decomposition of the dielectric spectra shows the presence of two or three main relaxation domains. The lower relaxation frequency and the corresponding spectral amplitude increase as a function of salinity. The other observed relaxation mechanisms are shown to be dipolar in origin.PACS No.: 97.22Gn

A.C electrical conductivity and dielectric properties for poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) /poly (ethylene oxide) (PEO) blends undopedand doped with multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNTs) withdifferent concentrations (1, and 3 wt %) in the frequency range(25x103 - 5x106 Hz) were investigated. Samples of (PVA/PEO)blends undoped and doped with MWCNTs were prepared usingcasting technique. The electrical conductivity measurements showedthat σA.C is frequency dependent and obey the relation σA.C =Aωs forundoped and doped blends with 1% MWCNTs, while it is frequencyindependent with increases of MWCNTs content to 3%. Theexponent s showed proceeding increase with the increase of PEOratio (≥50%) for undoped blends samples, while s value for dopedblends exhibits to change in different manner, i.e. s increases andreach maximum value at 50/50 PVA/PEO, then decreases forresidual doped blends samples with 1% MWCNTs on the other handthe exponent s decrease and reach minimum value at 50/50PVA/PEO for samples doped with 3% MWCNTs, then return toincrease. The results explained in different terms.

Dielectric relaxation and conductivity of Ni0.3Zn0.7Fe2O4 (NZF) were studied in the frequency range between 0.01 Hz to 3 MHz and temperature range within 313 K to 473 K. The sample was prepared by mixing Zinc Oxide, Nickel Oxide and Iron Oxide and sintered at 1573 K for 10 hours long. Dielectric properties were studied using Novo Control Dielectric Spectrometer. Dielectric relaxation and conductivity phenomena were discussed using an empirical model to key out the dielectric relaxation process. Analyze peak frequency relaxation process consist of four slopes to explain the dielectric relaxation process. The conductivity of the sample indicates an activated process and activation energy of dc conductivity is 0.44 ± 0.01 eV.

The complex permittivity of LiClO4 and NaClO4 solutions in 1,2-dimethoxyethane (DME) has been measured in the frequency range 0.140–123.2 GHz. The data have been analysed according to a model for the reorientation of ion pairs given in a previous paper. The dielectric data are supplemented by conductivity measurements in a broad concentration range (10−4–1 mol/L) which evidence the large extent of salt association. The main result is that the solvation of Li+ and Na+ by DME cannot be described as simply as in the case of other solvents, such as tetrahydrofuran or ethyl acetate, as far as the dielectric properties are concerned: while the assumption of rigidly bound solvating molecules was acceptable for the latter solvents, some freedom in the reorientation of these molecules has to be taken into account for the case of DME. LiClO4 solutions in propylene carbonate (PC) + benzene and PC + DME mixtures have also been studied. The data, for the latter, can be qualitatively interpreted under the assumption that PC molecules take the place of DME molecules in the solvation sheath, even at low PC concentration.

Measurements of dielectric dispersion in vinyl acetal and formal polymers were performed over the frequency range 0.050 to 100 kc. at temperatures between 25 and 135 °C. The results reflect the effects of internal plasticization on the electrical properties of the polymers. With increasing size of the substituent groups from formal to butyral the dispersion range is shifted to lower temperatures at a given frequency. Electrical relaxation times and transition temperatures were obtained and values of enthalpies, free energies, and entropies of activation were calculated. A tentative physical picture of the mechanism of dielectric relaxation in these polymers was also formulated.

The dielectric properties of n-nonyloxycyanobiphenyl in the isotropic (I), nematic (N) and smectic A (SA) phases were investigated. The dielectric relaxation spectra, recorded in the frequency range 50 kHz - 100 MHz, were analyzed with use of the Cole-Cole equation. An anomalous temperature behavior of the static permittivity, the rotational diffusion exponent and the activation energy of mesogenic molecules rotating around their short axis, observed in the vicinity of the phase transitions, are discussed.

The aim of this work is to clarify dielectric relaxation phenomena in paraelectric phase of composites based on nanocrystalline cellulose and triglycine sulfate. Although the dielectric properties of this material were almost thoroughly investigated, but there has been no study devoted to relaxation anomalies in paraelectric phase. The results showed the presence of Debye-like relaxation at the entire studied frequency range 103 – 106 Hz under a weak electric field of 1 V.m-1 from phase transition temperature in the composite (54 ˚C) to 90 ˚C. In addition, the phenomena were observed at lower frequencies as compared to those of triglycine sulfate single crystals. The results were explained by the assumption based on critical slowing down occurred in the nanoparticles in the composite.

The dielectric properties of the third (3. OAOB) and fifth (5. OAOB) members of the PAA homologous series have been investigated in the frequency range from 0.1 to 12 MHz. Negative dielectric anisotropies have been obtained in the nematic phase of both substances. For the dielectric relaxation processes observed parallel to the nematic director, the relaxation times and activation energies have been estimated and discussed.

A study of the room-temperature ionic liquid N-methyl-N-ethylpyrrolidinium dicyanamide by dielectric relaxation spectroscopy over the frequency range 0.2 GHz ≤ ν ≤ 89 GHz has revealed that, in addition to the already known lower frequency processes, there is a broad featureless dielectric loss at higher frequencies. The latter is probably due to the translational (oscillatory) motions of the dipolar ions of the IL relative to each other, with additional contributions from their fast rotation.

Boroaluminosilicate glasses containing La2O3 were prepared by the normal quenching method. The glass transition temperatures (Tg) were measured by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The structural role of RO was investigated by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). Chemical durability was evaluated by weight losses of glass samples after immersion in HC1 solution. High resolution scanning electron microscopy (HR-SEM) was used to examine the surface micrographs of corroded glass samples. The dielectric constant and tangent loss were measured in the frequency range 10–106 Hz. The results revealed that chemical durability and dielectric properties increased with increasing La2O3 content.
