Abstract

A simple effective spherical cluster model of generalized susceptibility enhancements in disordered monodisperse suspensions of conducting spheres is compared with experimental measurements of reduced permittivity and conductance. Good agreement with experiment is obtained by treating the suspension in the Clausius-Mossotti approximation as a mixture of isolated spheres and compact spherical metallized clusters.
