[en] Pyrolytic carbon (PyC) coatings are deposited on the Nextel-440 fiber fabrics by chemical vapor deposition (CVD). The dielectric properties of the Nextel-440 fiber fabrics with PyC coatings (Nextel-440/PyC) are investigated in a temperature range from room temperature to 700 °C in X-band. Compared with the permittivity of the original Nextel-440 received, the complex permittivity of the Nextel-440/PyC (the real part ε′ and the imaginary part ε″), is significantly improved: ε′ of the Nextel-440/PyC has a positive temperature coefficient, in contrast, ε″ of the Nextel-440/PyC exhibits a negative temperature coefficient. Moreover, the reflection loss in units of dB is calculated. The results indicate that the microwave absorbing properties of the Nextel-440/PyC coatings is enhanced at 700 °C compared with that at lower temperatures. (paper)
