Abstract

Journal of Reinforced Plastics and Composites, Ahead of Print.
Ferrite-based nanoparticles (NPs) are a good choice to load in epoxy polymer to make a structurally stable and to shield from electromagnetic interference. Addition of 7 wt% cobalt ferrite (CF) with epoxy cause the enhancement of electrical (by 22.95%) ...
