Stealth capability and microwave shielding characteristics of the magnetic nanoparticle reinforced epoxy resin

The epoxy resin, reinforced with magnetic nanoparticles, demonstrates superior properties by combining the strengths of both the epoxy resin and the magnetic nanoparticles. Epoxy resin is a traditional and essential thermosetting polymer known for its high tensile strength, Young's modulus, and excellent thermal and electrical properties. Moreover, the magnetic nanoparticle-reinforced epoxy resin exhibits exceptional mechanical properties, particularly regarding microwave shielding, which is crucial for Radar Absorbent Materials (RAMs) and stealth technology. Stealth technology is vital in aerospace and naval technologies, enhancing warfare capabilities. The computational understanding of microwave shielding is essential for the practical applications of RAMs and stealth technologies. However, there has been a significant lack of computational research on the microwave-shielding properties of magnetic nanoparticle-reinforced epoxy resin, a gap that the current study aims to fill. The study delves deeply into the microwave-shielding characteristics of this material, thereby contributing to the field and potentially opening up new avenues for research and application.
