The Study of the Electromagnetic Shielding Properties of a Textile Material with Amorphous Microwire

Abstract

The paper presents the results concerning the utilization of a new class of composite textile materials with electromagnetic properties and the possibility of their utilization in the production of electromagnetic field protective equipment. The experimental and theoretical results concerning the electromagnetic characterization of a new textile material with composite structure are presented also considering the following aspects: - evaluation of the possibilities to use amorphous magnetic microwires in electromagnetic shielding; - study of the electromagnetic properties of the composite textile material, especially the electromagnetic field shielding, reflection and polarization; - determination of the frequency range within which these properties can be used in the realization of materials for the protection against electromagnetic fields. The experimental results of a material sample and a phantom for applications are connected with shielding in the frequency range used in mobile communications.
