Abstract: Accounting the competitive dielectric properties, excellent composited performance, particular microstructure, low mass ratio, high chemistry stability and convenience of utilizing as well as maintaining etc., the carbon-based materials have shown great application potential for electromagnetic (EM) wave absorption and drawn extensive attention in academic and industrial field. Comparative analysis upon domestic and foreign researches have been engaged in the present review. Based on the analysis of the research results both at home and abroad, we classify carbon-based composite materials into zero-dimensional, one-dimensional, two-dimensional and three-dimensional composite structures, according to their dimensionality. Further more, the research progress of carbon-based composite materials used for radar EM wave absorption has been clearly elaborated on the basis of the present classification. It has been of common knowledge that “thinner thickness, lower mass, wider effective bandwidth, higher mechanical perfor-mance” are the basic requirements for future EM wave absorption materials. The developing directions of physical phases compositing, particle structure diversifying, mechanism coorperating and electromagnetism parameters adjusting are figured out by comparing and summarizing the international academic progress of absorption materials.
