✦ Synopsis


Measurements of a.c. impedance were carried out in the frequency range 1 Hz to lo6 Hz at room temperature on isotropic and die-drawn isotactic polypropylene. It was found that the a.c. impedance decreases with increasing draw ratio in the frequency range 1 Hz to lo4 Hz and then becomes independent of draw ratio with increasing frequency. A dramatic drop in the a.c. impedance was observed in the frequency range lo4 to 106Hz, which is associated with a 8-relaxation process. The intensity of the 8-relaxation peak decreases with increasing draw ratio and nearly disappears for a draw ratio of 16.8. The Cole-Cole plots show good semicircles for isotropic and die-drawn samples indicating that a certain polarization mechanism is dominant in polypropylene.
