Abstract :
The paper presents nanocomposite materials based on polymers incorporating nanoscale carbon, diamond and ferroxides. Unique combination of physical and mechanical properties is observed using appropriate control on the nanocomposite technology. Rheological optimizations of dispersion structure allow obtaining composite coatings with improved thermal mechanical properties and wideband (up to 15 GHz) microwave absorbing characteristics with losses exceeding 10 dB.
