Abstract Abstract:
The electrical and dielectric properties of nicotinic acid (NIA) dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) binary mixtures have been investigated by using time domain reflectometry technique (TDR) in the 10 MHz to 50 GHz range at 25 °C 20°C & 10°C frequency ( LCR) 20 Hz 2 °C. The parameters such as complex permittivity (ε*(ω)), loss tangent (tan δ), Static (ɛs), relaxation (τ) Kirkwood correlation factor (geff) were obtained. Thermodynamic including activation enthalpy (ΔH)...
