Improved analysis of the dielectric properties of textile materials

Abstract

In a recent article [J. Text. Inst. 110, 211 (2019)], the dielectric properties of textile materials were studied theoretically. In the present work, an improved analysis of the temperature and moisture dependence of the dielectric permittivity for different textile materials was presented. The dielectric permittivity for water–polyester mixture was also studied. The temperature dependence of the relaxation time was calculated and compared with experimental results. The published theoretical paper showed an excellent agreement for a wide range of experimental results.
