Abstract

In this paper, multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs)/GF/epoxy composites were prepared by utilizing fabric of fiberglass to divisionalize the MWCNTs because MWCNTs are very difficult to disperse. Then the electromagnetic properties of MWCNTs/GF/epoxy composites with different contents of MWCNTs and the same layers of fiberglass or with same content of MWCNTs and different layers of fiberglass were studied respectively in electromagnetic wave band (8.2~12.4GHz). The results show that the dielectric property of MWCNTs/GF/epoxy composites can be improved along with increasing the content of MWCNTs while the magnetic conductivity is stay around the level of one (μ=1). Although the dielectric property is affected by the layers of fiberglass, it is not monotonic increasing or decreasing. Moreover, the number of ply does not impact the magnetic conductivity. Actually the real part value of the magnetic conductivity of MWCNTs/GF/epoxy composites is close to one (μ'=1) while the imaginary part is close to zero (μ"=0), and the value of them is unvariable in the whole electromagnetic wave band (8.2~12.4GHz).
