Mechanical and electromagnetic pro perties of shields on the base of needle-punched material with conductive and dielectric coatings
The results of the development of electromagnetic radiation shields with flexibility and minor weight and size parameters are presented. Needle-punched material was chosen as the basis for the shields of electromagnetic radiation, which was coated with conductive or dielectric coatings. It has been proved that when applied to a needle-punched material of thin (up to 5 mm) conductive or dielectric coatings, the ultimate strength increases to 5–10 kgf/mm2 and the surface resistance decreases to 0.05 MOhm/sq, while the weight and size parameters of the shields do not change significantly. It was shown that the frequency dependencies of the reflection and transmission coefficients correlate for coatings of various types. A sample of an electromagnetic radiation shields based on a needle-punched coated material consisting of powdered shungite has a reflection coefficient measured in the short circuit mode is about –22.8 dB in the 2–4 GHz frequency range, which allows to use this material to ensure electromagnetic compatibility, information security and personnel protection from electromagnetic radiation.
