Abstract
A composite based on magnetic iron particles and expanded graphite was prepared by thermal combustion and blending methods. Far infrared (8–14 μm) and 8 mm (35 GHz) millimeter wave were selected as attenuation objects. The attenuation performance of magnetic expanded graphite (MEG) composites on infrared/millimeter wave (IR/MMW) was tested by static tests using rubber specimens and dynamic tests by using MEG composites in smoke box. The effects of structure, media material type (carbonyl iron powder and Fe3O4) and weight ratio on the IR/MMW attenuation performance of MEG composites were also studied. The experimental results show that the attenuation ratio of MEG composites to IR/MMW in film is 80.3–87.0 %/93.0–99.6 %, respectively. In addition, MEG composites are used as smoke materials for smoke bomb and sprayed into the air to cover a target. As a result, the surface temperature of the target dropped significantly from 79.5 °C to 34.5 °C. The results show that MEG composites have excellent IR and MMW interference capabilities, and can be used as a new material for anti-IR/MMW smoke material.
期刊介绍:
The Journal covers the entire field of infrared physics and technology: theory, experiment, application, devices and instrumentation. Infrared'' is defined as covering the near, mid and far infrared (terahertz) regions from 0.75um (750nm) to 1mm (300GHz.) Submissions in the 300GHz to 100GHz region may be accepted at the editors discretion if their content is relevant to shorter wavelengths. Submissions must be primarily concerned with and directly relevant to this spectral region.
Its core topics can be summarized as the generation, propagation and detection, of infrared radiation; the associated optics, materials and devices; and its use in all fields of science, industry, engineering and medicine.
Infrared techniques occur in many different fields, notably spectroscopy and interferometry; material characterization and processing; atmospheric physics, astronomy and space research. Scientific aspects include lasers, quantum optics, quantum electronics, image processing and semiconductor physics. Some important applications are medical diagnostics and treatment, industrial inspection and environmental monitoring.
