Resumo

Natural rubber (NR) based nanocomposites containing a constant amount (50 phr) of standard furnace carbon black and graphene nanoplatelets (GNP) in concentrations from 1 to 5 phr have been prepared. Their dielectric (dielectric permittivity, dielectric loss) and microwave properties (coefficients of absorption and reflection of the electromagnetic waves and electromagnetic interference shielding effectiveness) have been investigated in the 1-12 GHz frequency range. The results achieved allow us to recommend GNP as second filler for natural rubber based composites to afford specific absorbing properties.
