Abstract: Mortar mixed with expanded polystyrene beads and electric arc furnace oxidizing slag (“beads slag mortar”) can be used as a broadband electromagnetic wave absorber by applying vibration before curing. In this study, the effects of vibration frequency and time during manufacturing, as well as water-cement ratio on aggregate distribution within the cross-section of beads slag mortar were investigated. It was found that the higher the vibration frequency, the shorter the vibration time and the lower the water-cement ratio required to achieve the aggregate distribution that results in a broadband electromagnetic wave absorber.
