Microwave absorbing properties of alternating multilayer composites consisting of poly (vinyl chloride) and multi-walled carbon nanotube filled poly (vinyl chloride) layers

The application of dielectric lossy absorbent, multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) filled polymer as a microwave absorbing material (MAM) is limited because of the high loading level. Optimizing the distribution of MWCNTs in a polymeric matrix was a key factor in obtaining better microwave absorption while keeping the MWCNT content low. According to the theory of transmission lines, we designed an alternating multilayer structure with MWCNTs...
