What does permittivity mean?
The measure of a material's ability to support the formation and propagation of electromagnetic fields. It is a measure of how easily a material can be polarized by an electric field.
Example
"The permittivity of the dielectric material was measured to be 3.5, indicating its ability to support the propagation of electromagnetic waves."
