Identification of dielectric and structural relaxations in glass-forming secondary amides

Dielectric relaxation dynamics of secondary amides is explored in their supercooled state near the glass transition temperature Tg by investigating N-ethylacetamide and its mixtures with N-methylformamide. All the samples are found to exhibit giant dielectric permittivities, reaching over 500 in N-methylformamide-rich mixtures around Tg. For both the neat and binary systems, the predominant relaxation peak is of the Debye-type throughout the viscous regime, which is an unexpected feature for a glass former with intermediate fragility. The present results combined with the earlier reported high-temperature data reveal that the dielectric strength delta epsilon(D) of the Debye relaxation extrapolates to zero at frequencies of 10(10)-10(11) Hz, which is about two orders of magnitude lower than the phonon frequency limit typical of the structural relaxation. This Debye process is remarkably similar to the dielectric behavior of many monohydroxy alcohols, which implies a common nature of purely exponential relaxation dynamics in these liquids. Based on the dielectric properties, we conclude that the Debye relaxation in the secondary amides is not a direct signature of the primary or alpha-relaxation, the latter being obscured at low temperatures due to the relatively low permittivity and close spectral proximity to the Debye peak. As in the case of monohydroxy alcohols, dielectric polarization and structure fluctuate on different time scales in secondary amides. The Kirkwood-Fr?hlich correlation factors for Debye-type liquids are also discussed.     

Effect of annealing on electrical responses of electrode and surface layer in giant-permittivity CuO ceramic

The effect of heat treatments on the electrical responses of the electrode and surface layer in a giant-permittivity CuO ceramic is investigated. It is found that the giant low-frequency relative permittivity of the CuO ceramic can be tuned by annealing in Ar and O₂—it can be reduced by annealing in Ar, and then it can be enhanced up to the initial value by annealing in O₂. The results indicate to the effect of oxygen vacancy concentration on the giant dielectric properties of the CuO ceramic. Interestingly, three sets of dielectric relaxations are observed in the O₂–annealed sample, which can be assigned as the effects of outmost surface layer, electrode, and grain boundary. Our results reveal that the giant low-frequency dielectric response in the CuO ceramic is associated with both of the interfacial polarization at the sample–electrode interface resulted from a non-Ohmic electrode contact and the outmost surface layer-inner part interface.

Improving breakdown strength and energy storage efficiency of poly(vinylidene fluoride-co-chlorotrifluoroethylene) and polyurea blend films by double layer structure design

All-organic composites are widely used in energy storage application due to the high breakdown strength performance, but the improvement of energy storage was limited by the relatively low dielectric constant. Therefore, to satisfy the high demands of dielectric materials, energy storage properties of polymer composites should be further enhanced. In this article, poly(vinylidene fluoride-co-chlorotrifluoroethylene) (P(VDF-CTFE)) and polyurea (PUA), which are known as high dielectric ferroelectric material and linearly high energy storage efficiency material respectively, are composited through double layer (DL) casting method for the first time. The properties of DL structured composite film is contrasted with solution blending structure especially in energy storage efficiency, and the results demonstrate that DL structure design can make great use of advantages of two materials and also can avoid the influence of phase separation between P(VDF-CTFE) and PUA efficiently. Moreover, high breakdown strength (6180 kV/cm) and high energy storage efficiency (77%) of DL composites can be realized simultaneously by incorporating PUA as an insulating layer, and the mechanism is discussed in detail. This work provides an effective route to improve the energy storage properties of polymer dielectric materials and shows great application potential.     

Preparation and properties of hollow silica tubes/bismaleimide/diallylbisphenol A composites with improved toughness,dielectric properties,and flame retardancy

New high performance insulating composites based on hollow silica tubes (mHST) and bismaleimide/diallylbisphenol A (BDM/DBA) resin, which exhibit improved toughness, dielectric properties, and flame retardancy, were successfully developed. The effect of the amount of mHST on the properties of composites was systematically studied. Results show that the impact strength of the composite with 0.5 wt% mHST is about 2.2 times that of BDM/DBA resin. In addition, compared with BDM/DBA resin, the composites show lower and stable dielectric constant, better frequency stability of dielectric loss, significantly improved flame retardancy, and similarly outstanding thermal resistance. The reasons behind these attractive integrated properties are discussed from the view of structure–property relationship. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Beyond the first hydration shell: dielectric study of LiCl aqueous solution

The dielectric constant for lithium chloride (LiCl) in aqueous solution with the entire concentration has been determined in the frequency range 0.5 GHz–50GHz at 298 K by dielectric relaxation spectroscopy (DRS). The system behaviour is described according to the Cole–Cole and two Debye-type relaxation functions whose evolution with composition is analysed. Combining the Cole–Cole and two Debye-type relaxation functions, the results of the dielectric properties of aqueous LiCl solution are presented and discussed. The maximum number of water molecules perturbed by ions in the hydration shell decays with its concentration. Using the extended Froehlich theory, it is concluded that the water structure is perturbed by ions beyond the first hydration shell in LiCl aqueous solution system.     

Giant polarization in stable polymeric dielectrics

Macromolecular solids of highly aromatized structure can exhibit giant polarization. Their structures must be capable of providing long-range electron orbital delocalization. Intermolecular conformality of the orbitals of these huge molecules can result in ready carrier formation. The ready transport of these electronic holes and electronic carriers as polarons able to range over long molecular domains will then produce the giant polarization characteristic of the nomadic polarization mechanism. Recent developments in the synthesis and characterization of such materials new make available a new and interesting class of very stable organic dielectrics having dielectric constants in excess of 100. A number of such materials are described.     

Transitions/relaxations in polyester adhesive/PET system

The correlations between the transitions and the dielectric relaxation processes of the oriented poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) pre-impregnated of the polyester thermoplastic adhesive have been investigated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and dynamic dielectric spectroscopy (DDS). The thermoplastic polyester adhesive and the oriented PET films have been studied as reference samples. This study evidences that the adhesive chain segments is responsible for the physical structure evolution in the PET-oriented film. The transitions and dielectric relaxation modes’ evolutions in the glass transition region appear characteristic of the interphase between adhesive and PET film, which is discussed in terms of molecular mobility. The storage at room temperature of the adhesive tape involves the heterogeneity of the physical structure, characterized by glass transition dissociation. Thus, the correlation between the transitions and the dielectric relaxation processes evidences a segregation of the amorphous phases. Therefore, the physical structure and the properties of the material have been linked to the chemical characteristics.
