Abstract
Microwave absorption properties of Epoxy/Nickel Ferrite (NiFe2O4) and Epoxy/Barium Titanate (BaTiO3) composites were investigated and compared in the 1–14 GHz. Epoxy/filler particles (NiFe2O4 and BaTiO3) composites were prepared with 85/15 mixture ratios via Ultrasonic Probe Sonicator method in solution. The complex permittivity ( ‐ ) and permeability ( ‐ ) of the composites have been measured at different microwave frequencies in 1–14 GHz via vector network analyzer (Keysight N9926A). The reflection loss (RL) of composites was calculated and evaluated from camplex permitivity and permeability. The obtained results show that both composites exhibit the large RL and broadband within the frequency range from 1 to 14 GHz for different thickness. Epoxy/BaTiO3 showed a better microwave absorption at the range of 6–7.2 GHz for 7 and 6 mm, at the range of 7.4–9.1 GHz for 5 mm. However, the Epoxy/NiFe2O4 exhibits the largest RL and the widest bandwidth than those obtained from Epoxy/BaTiO3 composite. POLYM. COMPOS., 39:E2143–E2148, 2018. © 2017 Society of Plastics Engineers
