Tomsk University of Technology cooperated with scholars from Jilin University in China to develop a rapid and economical method for obtaining magnetite hollow fine-grained powders for the manufacture of materials that absorb UHF radiation. With this material, military equipment can be produced. The enclosure makes it invisible to the radar and protects it from electromagnetic radiation. It can also be used to protect fiber optic cables and other IT equipment. It does not suffer from high frequency interference when transmitting data at high speed.
Ivan Shaynkov, a staff member of the institute's electrical and electronic equipment department, said: 'Magnetite microparticles have unique electromagnetic properties that make these materials promising for use as UHF radiation absorbers.'
Researchers use a unique plasma accelerator device to obtain different iron oxide powders in less than a millisecond, while other chemical technologies require a day and night to three weeks. This method also saves resources, and the process consumes only power Fees around 5 rubles.
In addition, there is evidence that smearing ointments containing the powder can also improve blood clotting and may become a gospel for leukemia patients in the future.
