Abstract

Abstract The results obtained in this investigation indicate that either the formula developed by Wiener (Formula 7) or the exponent formula (Formula 9) may be used for the computation of the dielectric constants of mixtures of calcium carbonate and rubber. Formula 7 may be preferred, since it gives some indication of the shape of the particles and state of dispersion of the powder. There was little difference between values of the dielectric constant and loss tangent at 1 kilocycle per second and at 100 kilocycles per second. The change of the loss tangent with the content of calcium carbonate was not large, but a direct relationship between loss tangent and percentage of calcium carbonate was indicated. The 1-minute-conductivity values increased continuously with increasing content of calcium carbonate when Vistanex was used as the base, but passed through a minimum when natural rubber was used.
