Abstract

This paper studies the electrical conductivity, permittivity, and dielectric losses of a nanocomposite obtained by impregnating a NaA zeolite host matrix with Rochelle salt (potassium sodium tartrate tetrahydrate, KNaC4H4O6 × 4H2O) as a guest substance over the frequency range from 0.1 Hz to 1 MHz upon heating from 273 K to 493 K. This study discusses the characteristic features of the frequency and temperature dependences of the electrophysical properties of the Rochelle salt / zeolite A nanocomposite.
