Abstract

Abstract At least one conductive element combined with a magnetic absorbing mixture surrounding at least part of the conductor has a composite structure: a core is formed by a filament or fiber (rayon, nylon, glass) and a conductive coating (metal or metallic glass). There is so provided a high resistance element, with good mechanical properties and a great absorption of high frequencies. Applications: antiparasitic cables for ignition of internal combustion engines, instrumentation and low-pass cables, coaxial cables, shields and screens.
