Abstract
Results of research on the dielectric losses and polarization of polymers are presented. In the first and second parts of the paper these behaviors of the polymers are considered for high‐elastic state. The dielectric losses are shown to be of relaxation character since they can be described by the segmental thermal motion of polymolecules. The second part deals with effective dipole moments of elementary chain units of macromolecules of the homologous series of methacrylic acid esters. It is stated that for the polymers under consideration the intramolecular interaction is of considerable significance. The third part of the report supplies data on the dielectric losses and polarization research of the same polymers in the glassy state. In this case the losses of relaxation character, called dipole‐radical, are observed, as they can be described by the thermal motion of separate polar groups or radicals. The application of the method of effective dipole moments for analysis of the experimental date has brought us to the conclusion that it is the intermolecular interaction which is of greater importance for the dipole‐radical losses.
