Abstract
A parallel plate dielectric analyzer is disclosed including:
(a) a distance sensor for accurately measuring the varying distance between the electrodes, such as a linear voltage differential transformer (LVDT), and means responsive to the distance sensor for positioning the electrodes;
(b) a force transducer for measuring the applied force on the sample and means responsive to the force transducer to give a desired force by varying the electrode spacing;
(c) disposable electrodes made using thick film technology composed of a ceramic substrate with a conductor adhered to its surface; and
(d) a temperature sensor built into one of the electrodes such as a platinum ring adhered to the surface of one of the electrodes and means to measure the resistance across the platinum ring.
