Thermopolarization Phenomena in the Temperature Range of Glass Transition of Amorphous Polydiethylsiloxane

Abstract:

The transition from the glass to the highly elastic state in polydiethylsiloxane (PDES) is not reflected on the temperature dependences of the relative permittivity, the dielectric loss tangent, and the specific volumetric electrical conductivity. But, the peak of the current of thermostimulated depolarization (TSD) is fixed in the temperature range of the transition to the highly elastic state. The peak of the TSD current at T ~ 130K indicates a continuous amorphous phase formation in the experimental conditions. The maximum value of the TSD current directly depends on the content of the amorphous phase in the polymer. The cooling of the polymer in an electric field reduces the magnitude of the peak. Exposure in the mesophase leads to an almost complete absence of thermopolarization effects near the glass transition temperature. This peak of the TSD current in the absence of preliminary polarization is characteristic, presumably, only for flexible-chain polymers where structural units have pyroelectric properties. Under certain conditions, PDES demonstrates itself as an active dielectric in the temperature range of 90 - 180K.
