So.. is this capable of making planes, tanks, missiles and people electronically invisible?

LOL

Stealth F-16s?

“A new composite material developed by KIMS researchers absorbs over 99% of electromagnetic waves from different frequencies, improving the performance of devices like smartphones and wearables.”

99% = 20dB

Not terribly impressive.

Thx for posting this. Of interest.

Opponents of Magneto are lining up to buy it

Sounds more like a viable solution for protection of critical infrastructure against EMP attacks.

Ah the joys of capitalism. Think this could happen under socialism?

I have a sportsync radio that delays the radio signal for football games on the tube. Could that eliminate the need for that kind of radio?

It will save on tin foil...............

“ Sounds more like a viable solution for protection of critical infrastructure against EMP attacks. “

Will they make a car cover?

[Fai Mao]

My thought too.

“All Electromagnetic Waves”
“high absorbance of over 99% across three different frequency bands”

Not nearly the same thing. I hate to be pedantic, but I’m going to be pedantic.

Cool, when we remodel that will go in before the insulation.

I bet it is very expensive and suitable for using small pieces inside electronic devices like cell phones.

I would like large sheets of it to line my bedroom.

How about a Whole House cover?

:-)

Oh sure, it’s all beer and skittles until the Romulans turn it into a cloaking device...

You were lucky it didn’t absorb this post.
