RF ABSORBER MATERIALS

RF Absorber Materials from 500 MHz to 100+ GHz

3PB Solutions designs and manufactures RF absorber materials (also called microwave absorber materials) for cavity resonance suppression, near-field RFI mitigation, EMC compliance, free-space signal isolation, and PIM mitigation. The full product line covers 0.5 to 100+ GHz across five material categories: magnetically loaded elastomer RF absorber sheets, broadband RF absorber foam, reticulated foam, dispensable RF absorbers, and thermal pad RF absorbers.

All RF absorbing materials are manufactured in-house in the United States. Standard and custom sheet sizes are available with pressure-sensitive adhesive (PSA) backing and custom die-cutting. Complex permeability and permittivity data is available for electromagnetic simulation in HFSS, CST, and COMSOL. Standard orders ship in 2 to 3 weeks. Overnight shipping is available for engineers who need RF absorber material at the test lab immediately.
