In this work, spherical flower-shaped composite carbonyl iron powder@MnO2 (CIP@MnO2) with CIP as the core and ultrathin MnO2 nanosheets as the shell was successfully prepared by a simple redox reaction to improve oxidation resistance and electromagnetic wave absorption properties. The microwave-absorbing properties of CIP@MnO2 composites with different filling ratios (mass fractions of 20%, 40%, and 60% after mixing with paraffin) were tested and analyzed. The experimental results show that compared with pure CIP, the CIP@MnO2 composites have smaller minimum reflection loss and a wider effective absorption bandwidth than CIP (RL < −20 dB). The sample filled with 40 wt% has the best comprehensive performance, the minimum reflection loss is −63.87 dB at 6.32 GHz, and the effective absorption bandwidth (RL < −20 dB) reaches 7.28 GHz in the range of 5.92 GHz–9.28 GHz and 11.2 GHz–15.12 GHz, which covers most C and X bands. Such excellent microwave absorption performance of the spherical flower-like CIP@MnO2 composites is attributed to the combined effect of multiple beneficial components and the electromagnetic attenuation ability generated by the special spherical flower-like structure. Furthermore, this spherical flower-like core–shell shape aids in the creation of discontinuous networks, which improve microwave incidence dispersion, polarize more interfacial charges, and allow electromagnetic wave absorption. In theory, this research could lead to a simple and efficient process for producing spherical flower-shaped CIP@MnO2 composites with high absorption, a wide band, and oxidation resistance for a wide range of applications.

Spawns structure of rod-like ZnO wrapped in the cellulose nanofibers was successfully fabricated through a facile one-step hydrothermal method, and their electromagnetic wave absorption properties were investigated. The structure and properties of the composite aerogel were characterized. The enlarged morphology images showed that the as-prepared cellulose nanofiber/ZnO samples were spawns structure of rod-like ZnO wrapped in the cellulose nanofibers. The composite aerogel in a wax matrix exhibited excellent electromagnetic wave absorption performance over 2–18 GHz. The widest absorption bandwidth of 30 wt% contained with reflection loss values less than −10 dB was up to 12 GHz (6–18 GHz) at the thickness of 5.5 mm and the minimum reflection loss value reached −26.32 dB at 15.2 GHz when the thickness of the absorber was 3 mm.

AbstractNowadays, metal oxide-based electromagnetic wave absorbing materials have aroused widely attentions in the application of telecommunication and electronics due to their selectable mechanical and outstanding dielectric properties. Herein, the binary ZnO/NiCo2O4 nanoparticles were successfully synthesized via hydrothermal reaction and the electromagnetic wave absorption properties of the composites were investigated in detail. As a result, benefiting from the dielectric loss, the as-obtained ZnO/NiCo2O4-7 samples possessed a minimum reflection loss value of −33.49 dB at 18.0 GHz with the thickness of 4.99 mm. This work indicates that ZnO/NiCo2O4 composites have the promising candidate applications in electromagnetic wave absorption materials in the future.

To solve more and more serious electromagnetic radiations, electromagnetic wave absorption cement were prepared by introducing carbon black and glass fiber as composited absorbing reagent, wich can be useful in building anechoic chamber and other electromagnetic radiation protection to buildings. The results showed that the absorption properties were improved compared with single absorbing agent such as carbon or glass fiber. the lowest reflection loss of-11.3dB was obtained at 18 GHz of 5wt.% carbon black and 9wt.% glass fiber filled cement with thickness of 20mm. The increase of thickness separately can not improve the absorption properties.

Fe nanoparticles with shell of Ni-P coating layer were successfully synthesized using Ni electroless plating process. Electromagnetic-wave absorption of Ni-P coated Fe nanoparticles has been investigated. In contrast to earlier reported materials, the absorption amplitude of as-prepared samples is found not largely decrease with increasing absorption-layer thickness. A reflection loss (RL) exceeding -20 dB can be obtained for almost the whole frequencies within the 2-18GHz range by choosing an appropriate layer thickness between 0.9 and 6.0mm. The broadest bandwidth (RLu-bands(12-18GHz), is obtained for 1.1mm layer. At the same time, it is worth noticing that in a thin thickness range 0.91-2.0mm, the reflection loss (RL) exceeding -10 dB in the 6-18GHz range is obtained, which covers half of C-bands (4-8GHz), the whole X-bands (8-12GHz) and Ku–bands (12-18GHz).
