Summary

The effects of the bulky side groups on the dielectric high and low temperature absorptions are discussed with respect to the shapes, the magnitudes and the apparent activation energies of the absorptions. To this purpose, the properties of the dielectric absorptions of polyvinyl acetate and polyvinyl benzoate are compared in detail.

The asymmetrical shapes of the absorption curves of these polymers can be explained by the characteristic natures of the absorptions in the amorphous linear high polymers, that is, by the fact that the dipoles are combined with each other by the chains in the amorphous solid state. The agreement between the theoretical and the observed curves seems to be satisfactory. The effects of the bulky side groups on the shapes of the absorptions are remarkable in the high frequency side of the absorption curve.

The magnitudes of the absorptions of PVAc are larger than those of PVBz, which can be explained by taking account of the difference of the dipole concentrations between these polymers.

The attachment of the bulky side groups makes the values of the activation energies increase. The difference of the chemical structures seems to affect more sensitively to the high temperature absorption.

Zusammenfassung

Die Effekte voluminöser Seitengruppen zu den Hoch- und Tieftemperaturabsorptionsmaxima werden hinsichtlich ihrer Form, ihrer Größe und der scheinbaren Aktivierungsenergien diskutiert. Dies geschieht durch einen Vergleich der dielektrischen Eigenschaften von Polyvinylacetat und Polyvinylbenzoat.

Die asymmetrische Gestalt der Absorptionsgruppen dieser Polymeren kann durch die charakteristische Art der Absorption für amorphe lineare Hochpolymere erklärt werden, nämlich damit, daß die Dipole durch die Hauptketten im amorphen festen Zustand miteinander verkoppelt sind. Die übereinstimmung zwischen theoretischen und beobachteten Kurven erscheint befriedigend. Die Effekte der großen Seitengruppen auf die Form der Absorption ist auf der Hochfrequenzseite der Absorptionskurve beträchtlich.

Die Größen der Absorption für Polyvinylacetat sind stärker als die für Polyvinylbenzoat, erklärbar aus dem Unterschied der Dipolkonzentrationen in beiden Polymeren.

Die Festlegung der voluminösen Seitengruppen läßt die Aktivierungsenergie-Werte ansteigen. Unterschiede in den chemischen Strukturen scheinen die Hochtemperaturabsorption empfindlicher zu beeinflussen.
