Dielectric spectroscopy on low-density polyethylene filled with titanium dioxide — •Frübing Peter1, Blischke Dörte1, Gerhard-Multhaupt Reimund1, and Khalil M.

Low-density polyethylene (LDPE) filled with a small amount (1 to 10 wt%) of titanium-dioxide powder proves to be very suitable for studying the molecular motion of polyethylene with dielectric spectroscopy. The titanium-dioxide particles act as oxidizing agents inducing a small concentration of polar carbonyl groups which do not alter molecular motion, but couple it to the alternating electric field.

The frequency and temperature dependences of molecular-motion processes in LDPE are determined from isochronal and isothermal loss plots. In particular, the temperature dependence of the β process connected with the glass-rubber transition in polyethylene obeys the Vogel-Fulcher-Tammann-Hesse law, which indicates co-operative behaviour. The dielectrically determined glass-transition temperatures center around 255 K. Reasonable agreement with the value obtained from differential-scanning calorimetry is found.
