Abstract: | Abstract The splitting of the d.c. conductivity on the low frequency side of the dielectric loss has been performed by using the complex dielectric polarizability α, instead of the permittivity. Data dealing with the dielectric loss for poly(monocyclohexylitaconate) have been used to compare both methods. The dielectric relaxation peaks in M″ and α″, are in general in good qualitative agreement. There is a small shift which is attributed to the fact that M is a modulus and α a compliance. |
