MXene-Coated Polymer
- Waveguides, crucial for satellite communication, have traditionally been heavy due to their metal construction, but researchers are innovating with MXene-coated polymer waveguides to reduce weight and maintain performance.
- Waveguides are essential for directing microwaves in satellite communication systems, traditionally made from heavy metals, contributing to high launch costs.
- MXene, a conductive nanomaterial, is applied to 3D-printed polymer waveguides, enabling them to guide electromagnetic waves effectively.
- These lightweight waveguides, weighing eight times less than aluminum counterparts, demonstrate efficient transmission of electromagnetic waves, with performance comparable to metal waveguides.
- MXene coatings not only maintain transmission efficiency but also offer potential cost and weight ....
