The article discusses the process of applying a radio-absorbing coating to the surface of plastic. Vacuum plasma methods make it possible to effectively apply thin films to various surfaces. The main parameters affecting the quality and effectiveness of the properties of the applied coatings are considered.The result of the studied coatings obtained by the vacuum-plasma method showed that a sample coated with aluminum nitride, the transmission coefficient through which has not changed compared to the case of free space, is not shielding, and a sample coated with titanium metal, introducing additional attenuation of the order of 5 dB indicates the presence of absorption.
