The results of complex dielectric permittivity (CDP) measurements of bentonite depending on moisture and temperature at frequencies from 1 MHz to 8.5 GHz are presented. Dielectric properties of bound water are investigated using refractive mixing dielectric model. It is shown that CDP of bound water at frequencies below 1 GHz depends on its quantity, and this dependence is not monotonic. The real and imaginary parts of the CDP reach maximum values at the moisture of 0,04-0,07 m3/m3 and increase with temperature rise. A model describing bound water CDP dependence on frequency, temperature and moisture, including three frequency relaxation areas, is created. The regression equations relating the parameters of the model to temperature and moisture were found. Bentonite CDP model results deviate from experimental data by less than 10% for the real part of CDP, and 15-20% for the imaginary part.
Keywords: dielectric permittivity, bound water, bentonite, dielectric relaxation, refractive mixing dielectric model.
