Today, the important status of the mine warfare is not changed at all, and the good mine weapon can play a good role in the modern sea warfare.
The traditional mine is generally made of metal, but the mine works underwater for a long time, and the metal material is easy to corrode to cause failure, so that the problems of short service period, need of regular maintenance and the like are caused. With the improvement and development of the mine technology, the requirements on the mine concealment technology are higher and higher, and the mine made of metal materials cannot absorb electromagnetic waves, so that the mine concealment function is realized.
In order to realize the stealth function of the mine, the main modes comprise appearance stealth, self-burying stealth and material stealth, and the material stealth is the most effective mode for realizing the stealth function of the mine, so that the mine is widely concerned and researched.

As can be seen from table 1, the mine shells prepared by the method and the materials of the invention in examples 1 to 3 have wide frequency band and good wave absorbing performance, and three functional layers can be effectively layered after one-time rotational molding. In contrast, when the metal ions in the wave-transmitting layer in the comparative example 1 exceed 3000ppm, the wave-absorbing performance of the shell is obviously reduced, probably because the wave-transmitting effect of the wave-transmitting layer is affected after the metal ions exceed a certain content range. Comparative example 2 after changing the particle size of polyethylene powder, absorbing foam material and low melting point alloy powder, three functional layers can not effectively be layered after one-time rotational molding, therefore three functional layers can not synergistic effect, absorbing effect greatly reduced.
