Abstract
The synthesis of poly (chlorotrifluoroethylene) [PCTFE] and its electrical measurements are reported here; A linear increase in current with voltage u p to 400 V, and an exponential increase thereafter, is observed at all the studied temperatures. This is an indication of the Schottky or Poole Franke l conduction mechanisms to be operative. The variation of dielectric consta nt and dielectric loss with frequency at the studied temperatures suggests the contribution of electronic and ionic polarization to this effect.
