This study focuses on the electromagnetic wave absorption performance (EWAP) of ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC) incorporated with carbon black (CB) and carbon fiber (CF) in 2-18 GHz frequency range (required for the radar wave absorbing materials). The reflectivity of the traditional UHPC was investigated and compared to the cement-based composites reported in the literatures, so as to illustrate the advantages of novel UHPCs with respect to EWAP. Afterwards, the effect of CB and CF on the compressive strength, complex permittivity and reflectivity of the novel UHPCs was investigated. The microstructure of the novel UHPCs was also explored via scanning electron microscopy to illustrate the mechanism of performance enhancement on incorporating CB and CF. The results indicated that EWAP of the traditional UHPC was similar or inferior (at specific frequencies) to the literature reported cement-based composites. However, EWAP of the novel UHPCs was significantly improved after reinforcing with CB or CF. A positive effect of CB and CF was also observed on the compressive strength of the developed UHPCs. This study provides avenues for the use of UHPCs in protecting structures for absorbing the electromagnetic waves and safeguarding these structures against extreme loads, including blast and penetration.
