Abstract: An electromagnetic wave absorber comprises an electromagnetic wave absorber molded element, plate-shaped sintered ferrite, and a metal plate. The molded element incorporates a tile-shaped base portion and a wedge-shaped apex portion disposed on the base portion. The molded element is formed by injecting slurry into a mold, the slurry being obtained through mixing a molding material for the wave absorber with water, and curing the slurry. The molding material includes a magnetic material, an inorganic fiber and an inorganic binder. When these ingredients are mixed with water, the molding material first exhibits fluidity and then a curing reaction in a temperature range of 1 to 40° C.

Abstract: An electrically conductive member constituted by at least one member of the group consisting of carbon black, graphite and carbon fiber, a powdered or granulated material of an inorganic hollow body and inorganic reinforcing fiber are bonded to one another by an inorganic adhesive agent to thereby form an electric wave absorber. The electric wave absorber exhibits excellent electric wave absorbing power because of both the electrically conductive member and the powdered or granulated material of the inorganic hollow body which are contained in the electric wave absorber. The electric wave absorber has excellent mechanical strength because of the inorganic reinforcing fiber which is contained in the electric wave absorber. The electric wave absorber exhibits excellent nonflammable characteristic because of both the powdered or granulated material of the inorganic hollow body and the inorganic reinforcing fiber which are contained in the electric wave absorber.
