A single phase monoclinic new perovskite based titano‐manganite (La0.5−xPrxBa0.5)(Mn0.5Ti0.5)O3 has been successfully prepared by ceramic solid‐state technique at sintering temperature of 1300° C. The concentration of Pr (Praseodymium), x, in molar proportion in A site has been varied as x = 0, 0.02 and 0.2. Analysis has been carried out to determine the electrical properties of the synthesized material at frequency ranging from 5 Hz to 1 MHz; and at temperature range between 25° C to 200° C. It is found that Pr addition promoted liquid phase sintering diffusion, porosity and agglomeration formation at 1300° C. Dual relaxation is observed in unsubstituted Pr sample x = 0 and high Pr substituted sample x = 0.2. This phenomenon was a combinational contribution from a quasi dc (QDC) or low frequency dispersion (LFD), two cole‐cole relaxational responses and a resistor. While low concentrated Pr substituted sampled x = 0.02 shows a combinational contribution from a quasi dc (QDC) or low frequency dispersion (LFD), single cole‐cole relaxational response and a resistor at room temperature. Pr substitution at x = 0 (max 12000) and x = 0.2 (max 16000) showed high dielectric values compared to low substituted sample x = 0.02. Variation of dielectric loss tangent (tan δ) are observed for all samples at temperature ranged studied.
