Description

San Diego Composites, Inc. (SDC) has developed three conceptual hybrid magnetic shielding materials that have high magnetic shielding potential at low frequency, are light-weight, and maintain the high compressive strengths necessary to meet the Navys needs to support the development of the Electromagnetic Railgun (EMRG) Innovative Naval Prototype (INP). Each of the three hybrid material technologies developed by SDC uses advanced materials to maximize low frequency magnetic field shielding and compressive strength at 50% lower weight when compared to ferrite and other ferromagnetic metallic alloys.
