摘要

Using a refection/transmission technique, the complex relative permittivity and permeability of the carbon powder from catalyzed carbon black (CPCCB) were measured in the X and Ku bands. Based on these values and existing absorption models, electromagnetic wave absorption properties of CPCCB/paraffin wax composite was simulated, and a quantitative agreement between the simulated and the experimental data was obtained in the X and Ku bands. The effects of thickness on the CPCCB/wax composite were studied. It was found that an optimum thickness of the absorber needed to yield the maximum reflection loss could be obtained over a broad frequency region by simulation techniques.
