文摘The rapid development of communication technology and electronic industry has brought unprecedented serious electromagnetic interference(EMI)and electromagnetic wave(EMW)pollution.Although EMI shields and EMW absorbers based on metal or magnetic materials were used to solve these problems,they have long been criticized for their high price,high density and easy corrosion.In order to achieve low density and efficient dissipation of electromagnetic energy,aerogels stand out among manifold materials.However,constructing aerogels with good EMI shielding or EMW absorption performance and acceptable mechanical properties is not an easy task.Burgeoning biopolymers,such as cellulose,lignin,chitin/chitosan and alginate,breathe new life into aerogels for high-efficiency EMW shielding and absorbing.Here,we reviewed the contributions of biopolymers in the fields of aerogels for EMW shielding and absorbing.At the same time,some challenges and outlook were also pointed out,aiming to promote the advance of aerogel-based EMI shields and EMW absorbers as well as the rational utilization of biopolymers.

文摘Phase engineering is an important strategy to modulate the electronic structure of molybdenum disulfide(MoS_(2)).MoS_(2)-based composites are usually used for the electromagnetic wave(EMW)absorber,but the effect of different phases on the EMW absorbing performance,such as 1T and 2H phase,is still not studied.In this work,micro-1T/2H MoS_(2) is achieved via a facile one-step hydrother-mal route,in which the 1T phase is induced by the intercalation of guest molecules and ions.The EMW absorption mechanism of single MoS_(2) is revealed by presenting a comparative study between 1T/2H MoS_(2) and 2H MoS_(2).As a result,1T/2H MoS_(2) with the matrix loading of 15%exhibits excellent microwave absorption property than 2H MoS_(2).Furthermore,taking the advantage of 1T/2H MoS_(2),a flexible EMW absorbers that ultrathin 1T/2H MoS_(2)grown on the carbon fiber also performs outstanding performance only with the matrix loading of 5%.This work offers necessary reference to improve microwave absorption performance by phase engineering and design a new type of flexible electromagnetic wave absorption material to apply for the portable microwave absorption electronic devices.

文摘In this work,hierarchical hybrid composites consisting of porous three-dimensional reduced graphene oxide(3D-rGO)skeleton and lamellar boron nitride(BN)/silicon carbide(SiC)coatings are prepared by chemical vapor infiltration(CVI)process.The graphene framework prepared by 3D printing and frozen self-assembly exhibits a lightweight structure and a perforated conductive network,which extends the transmission path of incident microwaves.The introduced ceramic coatings can effectively tune the impedance matching degree and supply a lossy phase,and the hierarchical structure of the composites enhances the multiple scattering of the incident microwaves.As expected,the 3D-rGO/BN/SiC composites possess an excellent absorbing performance with a minimum reflection loss value of–37.8 dB,and the widest effective absorbing bandwidth(RL<–10 dB)of 5.90 GHz is obtained.The controllable fabrication of composites can provide a guideline for rational design and fabrication of high-performance electromagnetic waves absorbing materials in practical applications.

文摘Due to chemical inertness of nickel and boron,the preparation of nickel borides and corresponding layered ternary transition metal borides Ni_(3)ZnB_(2)(MAB phase)has always required high-temperature and/or high-pressure conditions.Yet,an innovative and efficient approach to preparing Ni_(3)ZnB_(2)at only 600℃and without applied pressure is presented in this study.It is discovered that by simply adjusting the temperature,a phase transition from Ni_(3)ZnB_(2)to Ni4B3 with a layered structure could be induced.This transition between the binary-component and the ternary-component brings about significant variation in electromagnetic wave(EMW)shielding/absorption performance of prepared borides.For instance,Ni2B has good EMW shielding performance(42.54 dB in X band)and Ni_(3)ZnB_(2)is of weak EMW shielding(13.43 dB in X band);Ni_(3)ZnB_(2)has poor EMW absorption performance(−5 dB)while Ni4B3 has excellent EMW absorption performance(−45.19 dB)at a thickness of 2.7 mm with effective absorption bandwidth(10.4 GHz).

文摘In current electronic information era,the complex application circumstance of 5G devices pursues the exploration of multi-functional electromagnetic wave(EMW)absorbent materials and it has become the crucial focus in industrial development.A two-dimensional(2D)graphite nanosheet decorated by nickel nanocapsules(2D graphite/Ni@C nanocomposite)was fabricated to possess the EMW absorption and the Escherichia coli(E.coli)anti-bacterial performance simultaneously.By adjusting the filling ratio and injecting nitrogen doping,the value of minimum reflection loss is−36.08 dB and the effective absorption bandwidth reaches to 5.12 GHz(from 11.4 to 16.52 GHz)with the mass ratio of 30 wt%and the absorber thickness of 2 mm.This 2D nanocomposite simultaneously gets an excellent anti-bacterial function expressing an E.coli anti-bacterial rate of 92%during 24 h which is significantly correlated to the interaction between the nanostructure of the 2D nanographite and the nickel ion released from Ni@C nanocapsules.This work provides a new approach to develop a promising 2D anti-bacterial EMW absorber.

文摘The microscopic morphology of electromagnetic wave absorbers influences the multiple reflections of electromagnetic waves and impedance matching,determining the absorption properties.Herein,the urchin-shaped bimetallic nickel-cobalt oxide/carbon(NiCo_(2)O_(4)/C)composites are prepared via a hy-drothermal route,whose absorption properties are investigated by different morphologies regulated by changing calcination temperature.A minimum reflection loss(RL_(min))of-75.26 dB is achieved at a match-ing thickness of 1.5 mm,and the effective absorption bandwidth(EAB)of 8.96 GHz is achieved at 2 mm.Multi-advantages of the synthesized NiCo_(2)O_(4)/C composites contribute to satisfactory absorption proper-ties.First,the interweaving of the needle-like structures increases the opportunities for scattering and multiple reflections of incident electromagnetic waves,and builds up a conductive network to facilitate the enhancement of conductive losses.Second,the carbon component in the NiCo_(2)O_(4)/C composites en-hances the interfacial polarization and reduces the density of the absorber.Besides,generous oxygen va-cancy defects are introduced into the NiCo_(2)O_(4)/C composites,which induces defect polarization and dipole polarization.In summary,the ternary coordination of components,defects and morphology led to out-standing electromagnetic wave absorption,which lightened the path for improving the electromagnetic wave absorption property and enriching the family of NiCo_(2)O_(4) absorbers with excellent performance.

文摘Lightweight nanocomposites consisting of magnetic and dielectric units aroused intensive interest as potential high performance electromagnetic wave absorbing materials.In this work,we report a facile and efficient method to fabricate(Co,SiO_(2))/PPy composites with tunable electromagnetic properties.The absorbing properties and effective absorbing bandwidth can be regulated by controlling the content of SiO_(2) in composites.The composite shows a maximum reflection loss(RL)of-65.31 d B at 11.12 GHz with a thickness of 3.002 mm when SiO_(2) being 22 wt.%.The effective absorbing bandwidth reaches up to 5.1 GHz(8.91-14.01 GHz),which covers the entire X band(8-12 GHz).The improved impedance matching,high interfacial polarization and complex electromagnetic synergy in the composites are the key factors giving rise to the higher efficient absorption.The PPy aerogel-based nanocomposites with controllable absorption performance,lower density and strong environmental adaptability will become attractive candidates as advanced microwave absorbing materials.

文摘Conjugated microporous polymers have excellent skeleton structures but poor electrical conductivity limits their applications in microwave absorption.To solve this problem,a strategy of molecular expansion and confining polymerization is proposed in this work to synthesize conductive hyper-crosslinked conjugated microporous polymer.The topology of the conjugated microporous polymer is changed into a three-dimensional skeleton structure with high specific surface area by using molecular expansion technique,and the controlled growth of polypyrrole in the channel constructs a unique network structure.The balance of excellent composite backbone structure,proper conductivity,attenuation capability and impedance matching enable the material to exhibit electromagnetic wave absorption performance.As a result,with low filler loading of 10 wt%,a strongest reflection loss of-52.68 d B and a maximum effective bandwidth of 5.76 GHz.Additionally,CST simulations of the radar scattering cross section have been carried out to verify the excellent material properties.This study provides new concepts for new conductive polymers and broadens the application of hyper-crosslinked conjugated microporous polymer in the field of electromagnetic wave absorption.

文摘Considering the high filling ratios,high densities,and narrow absorbing bandwidths of the current electromagnetic wave(EMW) absorbers,in this work,we successfully synthesized a 3 D hierarchical NiCo_(2) O_(4) nanoflowers/reduced graphene oxide(NiCo_(2) O_(4)/RGO) composite foam by a simple method under gentle condition.The NiCo_(2) O_(4) nanoflowers and unique 3 D foam structure are beneficial to the refraction and scattering of EMW,which endows the prepared 3 D foam with highly efficient EMW absorption performance.When the ratio between NiCo_(2) O_(4) and RGO in the foam is 1:1,5% mass fraction of NiCo_(2) O_(4/)RGO foam in paraffin wax can reach a minimum reflection loss(RL_(min)) value of-52.2 dB with a thin thickness merely 2.6 mm.Simultaneously,the effective absorption bandwidth(EAB,RL exceeding-10 dB) is7.04 GHz that covers the whole Ku band(10.96-18 GHz).Moreover,the effects of the thickness of the absorber and the loading ratios of the foam in paraffin wax matrix on the EMW absorption properties are also carefully investigated.The results indicate that the optimum EMW absorption performance of NiCo_(2) O_(4/)RGO can be tuned in different bands.The EMW absorption mechanism is ascribed to the proper impedance matching and larger dielectric and magnetic loss produced by the synergy of NiCo_(2) O_(4) and RGO.Therefore,the NiCo_(2) O_(4/)RGO hybrid foam is ideal candidate to be used as high-efficient EMW absorbers with low filling ratio,light weight,and broad frequency bandwidths.

文摘Considering the emergence of severe electromagnetic interference problems,it is vital to develop electromagnetic(EM)wave absorbing materials with high dielectric,magnetic loss and optimized impedance matching.However,realizing the synergistic dielectric and magnetic losses in a single phase material is still a challenge.Herein,high entropy(HE)rare earth hexaborides(REB6)powders with coupling of dielectric and magnetic losses were designed and successfully synthesized through a facial one-step boron carbide reduction method,and the effects of high entropy borates intermedia phases on the EM wave absorption properties were investigated.Five HE REB6 ceramics including(Ce0.2Y0.2Sm0.2Er0.2Yb0.2)B6,(Ce0.2Hu0.2Sm0.2Er0.2Yb0.2)B6,(Ce0.2Y0.2Eu0.2Er0.2Yb0.2)B6,(Ce0.2Ya2Sm0.2Eu0.2Yb0.2)B6,and(Nd0.2Y0.2Sm0.2Eu0.2Yb0.2)B6 possess CsCl-type cubic crystal structure,and their theoretical densities range from 4.84 to 5.25 g/cm^(3).(Ce02Y0.2Sm0.2Er0.2Yb02)B6 powders with the average particle size of 1.86 jim were found to possess the best EM wave absorption properties among these hexaborides.The RLmin value of(Ce0.2Y0.2Sm0.2Er0.2Yb0.2)B6 reaches-33.4 dB at 11.5 GHz at thickness of 2 mm;meanwhile,the optimized effective absorption bandwidth(EAB)is 3.9 GHz from 13.6 to 17.5 GHz with a thickness of 1.5 mm.The introduction of HE REB03(RE=Ce,Y,Sm,Eu,Er,Yb)as intermediate phase will give rise to the mismatching impedance,which will further lead to the reduction of reflection loss.Intriguingly,the HEREB6/HEREB03 still possess wide effective absorption bandwidth of 4.1 GHz with the relative low thickness of 1.7 mm.Considering the better stability,low density,and good EM wave absorption properties,HE REB6 ceramics are promising as a new type of EM wave absorbing materials.
