چکیده

The dielectric properties of water-treed crosslinked polyethylene (XLPE) were studied by using a hollow microwave waveguide system between 135 MHz and 13.6 GH5. The dielectric loss of water-treed XLPE is proportional to water content. Water-treed XLPE has a low relaxation frequency which is probably due to bound water. The binding of water in trees was confirmed by the lower apparent water diffusion rate in treed XLPE than in undamaged controls measured with a radioactive tracer met hod.

Investigating Effect of Temperature on Dielectric Response of Bound Water in Grain

INTRODUCTION Electromagnetic wave interaction with materials containing water at microwave frequencies is dominated by water [1]. Water is an important component of many biological and nonbiological materials. It is sometime divided into two categories: free water and bound water. From an electrical standpoint, behavior of free water is well described by the Debye dielectric model [1] with a si...

A study of water sorption effects on the microwave dielectric properties of calcium chloride/silica gel composites

The water sorption behavior of a two-phase system of calcium chloride/silica gel composite based on mesoporous and microporous silica gels as host matrices and calcium chloride as a hygroscopic salt was studied. The dielectric properties at microwave frequencies of the composites with different adsorbed water contents were also tested. It is found that the composite exhibits excellent water sor...

Effect of Dielectric Properties of a Solvent-Water Mixture Used in Microwave-Assisted Extraction of Antioxidants from Potato Peels

The dielectric properties of a methanol-water mixture were measured at different temperatures from 20 to 80 °C at two frequencies 915 MHz and 2450 MHz. These frequencies are most commonly used on industrial and domestic scales respectively. In this study, the dielectric properties of a methanol-water mixture were found to be dependent on temperature, solvent concentration, and presence of plant...
