Electromagnetic Shielding Effectiveness Analysis of Nanoreinforced Polymer Composites

Abstract

The team conducted dielectric analysis of samples to promote a better understanding of the mechanisms involved in changes in dielectric structure of microstructures exposed to varying frequency fields and temperatures. The results were published as S. Yang, R. Benitez, A. Fuentes, and K. Lozano, "Dielectric Analysis of VGCNF Reinforced Polyethylene Composites," Composite Science and Technology, Vol. 67, No. 6, p. 1159 (2007). A journal article also was published relating to the physical integrity of the polymer composite due to microwave radiation: R. Benitez, A. Fuentes, K. Lozano, "Effects of Microwave Assisted Heating of Carbon Nanofiber Reinforced High Density Polyethylene, Journal of Materials Processing Technology, Vol. 190, p324-331 (2007).
