Abstract
An antenna reflector comprising a mesh material formed of a Carbon Nano-Tube (“CNT”) yarn that is reflective of radio waves and has a low solar absorptivity to hemispherical emissivity ratio (αsolar/εH ratio) and a low Coefficient of Thermal Expansion (“CTE”).
Claims6
An antenna reflector, comprising:
- a mesh material formed of a Carbon Nano-Tube (“CNT”) yarn that (i) comprises a plurality of carbon nano-tubes, (ii) is reflective of radio waves, (iii) has a solar absorptivity to hemispherical emissivity ratio (αsolar/εH ratio) that is equal to or less than 2, and (iv) has a Coefficient of Thermal Expansion (“CTE”) that is equal to zero plus or minus 0.5 ppm/C°.
