Abstract

This paper reported that, using the method of double layer composite successfully prepared high performance of electromagnetic wave absorption materials. Such a composite is composed of a cement matching layer filled with expanded polystyrene (EPS) beads and an absorbing cement layer made of EPS beads and carbon black. The samples were tested by arching method in the frequency range of 8~18GHz. The reflectivities were revealed to be excellent, the lowest being-17dB. The new material can be used for building indoor electromagnetic radiation protection.
