Notes:
Abstract Ion-exchange beads with different densities of fixed charges were prepared by sulfoethylation of dextran gel beads. The relative permittivities and the electrical conductivities of the ion-exchange beads in a sodium form were evaluated by a dielectric technique consisting of the following two procedures proposed in a previous study (2): (a) Dielectric measurements for densely packed sediments of the ion-exchange beads; (b) Analysis of the observed dielectric relaxations by means of a theoretical equation of interfacial polarization for suspensions of spherical particles. The deduced permittivities of the ionexchange beads in equilibrium with water were about 60, which is lower than those of outer aqueous phases. The deduced conductirities were of the order of 1 to 10 mS cm−1 and were increased reasonably with the fixed charge density. Closer consideration on these deduced values indicates that no specific interaction exists between the counter ions and the fixed charges irrespective of changes in fixed charge density and temperature.
