Abstract
The dielectric constant (K) and dielectric loss (tan δ) of preheated chrysotile asbestos up to 900°C were measured in the frequency range 102 to 105 Hz. TheK and tan δ values were also measured as a function of temperature for hot pressed powdered pellets of chrysotile asbestos. The d.c. conductivity of hot pressed powdered pellets of chrysotile asbestos was also measured as a function of temperature. Dynamic d.c. conductivity was measured in the temperature range 58 to 580° C. The results have been discussed and attempts made to establish a correlation between the structural changes with the variation of dielectric properties.
