Electromagnetic wave absorber

Abstract

An electromagnetic wave (EM) absorber is constructed by integrally laminating an EM-absorbing layer having an EM-absorbing filler dispersed in a silicone resin on at least one surface of an EM-reflecting layer having an electrically conductive filler dispersed in a silicone resin. It has satisfactory EM-absorbing and shielding abilities and is workable, flexible, weather resistant and heat resistant due to the nature of the silicone resin itself. The use of the silicone resin in both the EM-absorbing and reflecting layers ensures that a firm bond is established between the layers. In a preferred embodiment wherein a heat conductive filler is blended, the absorber has a satisfactory heat transfer ability as well.
