Polymeric composites for use in electronic and microwave devices
The dielectric and conductive properties of thermoplastic (ABS) composites filled with ceramic powder (barium titanate), conductive powders (carbon black, copper) and conductive fibers (carbon, steel) were investigated for use in electromagnetic crystals and microwave devices. Barium titanate/ABS composites were produced that had dielectric constants over 8 and loss tangents of 0.01, which are the requirements for electromagnetic crystals. Carbon black/ABS and steel fiber/ABS composites were obtained with conductivities suitable for electromagnetic shielding (over 10(-3) S/cm). Fused decomposition modeling was tested as a method for building electromagnetic crystals and showed promising results.
