Abstract
Sustainability can be defined as the ability of meet presents needs without compromise the ability of future generations to find their own needs. In this matter, scientists have been warning about natural resource scarcity, and now several researchers are aiming their efforts to develop sustainable technologies. Here, we focus on finding novel uses to biochar, a carbon rich material made from biomass that is usually applied on soil amendment. To expand its applications, biochars were activated using two different methods: a physical activation using CO 2 ; and a chemical one using KOH. We investigate here the dielectric properties of composites made with both activated biochars from white birch, where composites were made using silicone rubber matrix. It was also investigated the influence of composites made with biochar in powder and in flakes. All samples were characterized over the X-band frequency range. Composites made with powder presented a linear permittivity over the frequency range, while composites made with flakes presented oscillations on different frequencies. These oscillations are related to the composite surface, which induces reflection effects because of flakes arrangement in the top surface. Such effects widen opportunities to engineer new materials to be explored as radar-absorbing materials.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
