Segregated Conductive Polymer Composite with FeO-Decorated Graphite Nanoparticles for Microwave Shielding.

Graphite nanoplatelets (GNPs)-the segregated ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE)-based composites with hybrid filler-decorated with FeO were developed. Using X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy, it was shown that the decorated component has the shape of separate granules, or their clusters were distributed evenly over the GNPs surface. The individual FeO nanoparticles are predominantly rounded, with diameters of approximately 20-60 nm.
