Popis: Thermally stimulated depolarization current (TSDC) and dielectric relaxation spectroscopy (DRS) techniques were employed to study the relaxations and the conductivity phenomena in epoxy-based polymer. In addition to the primary α relaxation process associated with the glass–rubber transition, significant interfacial relaxation and ionic conduction process have been revealed. The ac conductivity is temperature and frequency dependent and shows a dc plateau at low frequencies. Above the glass transition temperature, dc conductivity is described by a Vogel–Tamman–Fulcher–Hesse (VFTH) equation while it shows Arrhenius behaviour at higher temperatures.
