| Abstract Scope |
This study aims to develop a nanocomposite based on polycarbonate (PC) nanofibers with reduced graphene oxide (rGO) for use in electromagnetic radiation absorbing materials (ERAM), focusing on stealth technologies for vessels. The nanofibers were produced via Solution Blow Spinning (SBS) to enhance absorption efficiency. The methodology included characterization of PC, rGO, and the nanocomposite through thermal analysis (TGA) and complementary techniques such as Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), and absorption measurements using a vector network analyzer. Results showed that varying rGO content improved absorption in the X-band, forming a functional system with potential for electromagnetic shielding. The analyses confirmed a homogeneous morphology and favorable thermal and structural properties, supporting the nanocomposite’s suitability for defense and security applications. |
