Application of multilayer carbon nanotubes for creation of coatings absorbing electromagnetic radiation

The article presents the use of carbon nanotubes as modifiers-materials for protection against electromagnetic radiation. The technique of obtaining nanomodified composites, as well as the method of characterization of carbon nanostructures is presented. Studies have shown that there is a linear dependence of the reflection coefficient on the frequency for composites modified multilayer carbon nanotubes based on Ni/0.16 MgO catalyst. It was found that composites containing multilayer carbon nanotubes based on Ni/0.16 MgO allow to achieve low values of the reflection coefficient and non-dependence of the reflection coefficient on the increase in frequency. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
