Abstract
Cerium oxide (CeO2) filled polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) composites prepared by powder processing technique for microwave substrate application is presented in this paper. The PTFE is used as the matrix and the dispersion of CeO2 in the composite is varied up to 0.6 by volume fraction, and the dielectric properties were studied at 1 MHz and microwave frequencies. The relative permittivity and dielectric loss increased with increase in CeO2 content. For 0.6 volume fraction loading of the ceramic, the composite has ɛr of 5 and tan δ of 0.0064 at 7 GHz. Different theoretical approaches have been employed to predict the effective permittivity of composite systems and the results were compared with that of experimental data. The serial mixing model shows good correlation with the experimental results.
