Abstract

With the development of infrared detection technology, there is a demand for more simple and convenient infrared shielding technology in some specific aspects, such as military applications. Here a new way to infrared stealth was presented, that is, a composite phase change microcapsules which were prepared by in situ polymerization, and have a core-shell structure, exhibited a good infrared stealth property. A series of tests were provided by scanning electron microscope, Fourier transform infrared absorption spectrometer, differential thermal scanning calorimeter, thermogravimetric analyses, infrared thermal imager, etc. The maximum enthalpy of the samples in the melting process is about 119 J/g, which enhanced sample infrared stealth performance. A good shape stability was proved by many thermal cycles. The samples are effective in reducing the infrared radiation intensity of target surfaces as well as in prolonging the appearance of infrared signatures.
