Abstract:
Fine particles of barium ferrite (BaFe12O19)
were synthesized by the conventional ceramic technique.
These materials were then characterized by the X-ray diffraction
method and incorporated in the natural rubber matrix
according to a specific receipe for various loadings of
ferrite. The rubber ferrite composites (RFC) thus obtained
have several applications, and have the advantage of molding
into complex shapes. For applications such as microwave
absorbers, these composites should have an appropriate
dielectric strength with the required mechanical and
magnetic properties. The N330 (HAF) carbon black has been
added to these RFCs for various loadings to modify the
dielectric and mechanical properties. In this article we report
the effect of carbon black on the mechanical and dielectric
properties of these RFCs. Both the mechanical and dielectric
properties can be enhanced by the addition of an appropriate
amount of carbon black
