Abstract
In this work, study was performed using Amorphous polymer – based composites consisting of polystyrene (PS) and carbon black (CB) . Five samples have been prepared with different weight percentage which are (0%CB+100%PS) , (5%CB+95%PS) , (15%CB+85%PS) , (25%CB+75%PS) and (35%CB+65%PS) . The electrical properties have been studied for these samples as follows : Electrical conductivity , relative dielectric constant and the dielectric loss tangent were measured at alternating electric field in temperature range between (30C°) and (60C°) and at four different constant frequencies (100HZ, 1KHZ, 10KHZ and 100KHZ ) . It is noted that the highest value of alternating electrical conductivity at (30C°) is for the sample of composition (25%CB+75%PS) which was (1.25x10 S/m ) and the highest value at temperature (60C°) was for same sample with value of (3.2x10 S/m ) , it should be noted that in general the electrical conductivity increases as the temperature increases where this result shows the behaviour of semiconductors. The relative dielectric constant in the pure sample (0%CB+100%PS) and the other samples with low percentage of carbon black increases as the temperature increases however it decreases as frequency increases. And the samples with higher percentage of carbon black which are (25%CB+75%PS) and (35%CB+65%PS) it was noted that the relative dielectric constant decreases as temperature increases. The lowest value was (1.26) at temperature (30C°) and frequency (10KHZ) for the sample with composition of (15%CB+85%PS), while the highest value at same temperature is (410.2) at (100HZ) for the sample with composition of (25%CB+75%PS), for the relative dielectric constant the highest result it was for the sample (5%CB+95%PS) at (607) at (100HZ) and (45C°). The dielectric loss tangent increases as the carbon black increases in all samples and it was found that the temperature influence will be at high percentage of the carbon black where the temperature of (55C°) the dielectric loss tangent increased to the highest value (1.2X10 ) for the sample of composition (35%CB+65%PS). at the high level of the carbon black it was found that the dielectric loss tangent decreases as the frequency increases.
