Performance of Electromagnetic Properties of Carbon Fiber Reinforced and AuNPs Functionalized MWCNTs Doped Hybride Composites

Abstract

Highlights Firstly, multilayer composite materials consisting of AuNP/MWCNT-doped epoxy, MWCNT-doped epoxy and pure epoxy were produced by the vacuum bagging method. The fiber reinforcement of each composite material was also selected as carbon fiber. Afterwards, measurements of composite materials produced in different configurations were carried out in the 3-8 GHz frequency range. The most important factor in choosing this range is that different new wireless communication bands are in this range. In conclusion; Among the composite materials measured; It has been determined that AuNP/MWCNT-doped epoxy and MWCNT-doped epoxies have much higher radar absorption than pure epoxy.
