Abstract

The search for new materials possessing magnetic and dieletric properties adequated to be used as radar absorbing materials has been of great importance. Among the materials under study, conducting polymers have been applied due to the possibility of variation of their conductivity with the frequency of the incident radiation. These research areas have been considered the state of the art in the processing of radar absorbing materials. The aim of this work is to present the large range of properties of the conducting polymers and their correlation with the potential application of these materials as electromagnetic radiation absorbers. Some results are also presented on blends of EPDM and 30-80% (w/w) of PAni-DBSA with thickness of 1 and 3 mm, analysed in the range of 8-12 GHz, which absorbed in the range of 50-90% of incident radiation.
