STUDIES ON THE DIELECTRIC BEHAVIOUR OF POLYPYRROLE AND ITS COMPOSITES WITH POLY (VINYL CHLORIDE)

Polypyrrole/poly (vinyl chloride) semi-interpenenzrtirtg networks of different compositions are prepared using anunonitun per sulfate initiator at room temperature in pellet.form and lilrrt form and their dielectric properties are studied at different microwave frequencies. An HP 8510 Vector network analyzer interfaced with a computer is used. The cavity-perturbation technique is employed for the study

The Effect of Dopants on the Microwave Dielectric Properties of Ba (Mg 0.33 Ta 0.67) O3 Ceramics

The effect of dopants with different valencies and ionic radii on the densification, structural ordering, and microwave dielectric properties of Ba(Mg1/3Ta2/3)O3 (BMT) is investigated. It is found that dopants such as Sb2O5, MnO, ZrO2, WO3, and ZnO improve the microwave dielectric properties of BMT. Addition of trivalent dopants is detrimental to the cation ordering and dielectric properties of BMT. A correlation between the microwave dielectric properties of BMT and ionic radii of the dopant has been established. The variation of the dielectric properties of pure and doped BMT at cryogenic temperatures is also discussed.
