Abstract

AbstractThe well-balanced combination of properties of some polymers makes them good materials for industrial microwave applications, such as telecommunications or microwave ovens. Particular electrical properties are usually needed and can be controlled by additives. In this work, we present the results of complex dielectric permittivity measurements, ε* = ε’ - iε’’, in the microwave frequency region (2.7 and 12.8 GHz), at constant temperature 300 K, on different glass-reinforced and pigmented plastics (poly(butylene terephthalate), polypropylene and acrylonitrile- butadiene-styrene), using the resonant cavity method. We measured the shift in the resonant frequency of the cavity, Δf, caused by the insertion of the sample, which can be related to the real part of complex permittivity, ε’, while the change in the inverse of the quality factor of the cavity, Δ(1/Q), gives the imaginary part, ε’’.
