Abstract
The temperature dependence of the free volume holes in pure polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) and doped with 25% glass have been studied in the temperature range (30–250 °C) using positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy. The data clearly revealed the glass transition temperatures for pure and doped PTFE are 130 and 110 °C, respectively. As the temperature increases, the free volume distribution becomes positioned at larger free volume hole size. A good correlation between the electrical conductivity and the o-Ps parameters was achieved.
