| Summary: | In this study, the terahertz (THz) spectra of C<sub>3</sub>S were obtained in the 0.4–2.3 THz frequency range using different sample preparation methods. In the spectra, a sharp absorption peak of C<sub>3</sub>S was found at 2.03 THz. Under controlled conditions, the mass ratio of C<sub>3</sub>S was the most critical factor affecting the strength of the absorption peak, and the absorption coefficient followed the Beer–Lambert law, exhibiting a linear relationship with the mass ratio of C<sub>3</sub>S. The intrinsic dielectric constants of C<sub>3</sub>S and polyethylene (PE) were calculated in accordance with the Maxwell–Garnett (MG), Bruggeman (BM), and Landau–Lifshitz–Loovenga (LLL) models, using two-phase composite samples. The results show that the LLL model had the highest accuracy.
