X-ray diffraction （XRD）, a scanning electronic microscopy （ SEM ）, a physical properties measurement system （PPMS-9）, and a vector network analyzer were used to analyze their structure, surface morphology, magnetic and absorbing properties, respectively. The results show that the absorbing band of the composite absorbing material is widened and the absorbing strength is increased compared with the pure M-type barium ferrite. The sample with the content of doped graphene oxide of 3% has the minimum reflectivity at 10 to 18 GHz frequencies. Hence, the doped graphene oxide effectively improves the absorbing properties of M-type barium ferrite.展开更多

We report the interface reflection model to divide the broad bandwidth into electromagnetic loss and quarter-wavelength （λ/4） cancelation. Combining with the face reflection calculation, we identify the electromagnetic loss originated from skin effect, which is used to explain over half of the absorbed energy in high frequency band. Most impor- tantly, the unique electromagnetic loss cannot generate the reflection loss （RL） peak. Using the phase relation of face reflection, we show evidence that the λ/4 cancelation is vital to generate the RL peak.

For the singlelayer absorbers, the nanocrystalline SrFe12O19 microfibers show some microwave absorptions at 6 GHz 18 GHz, with a minimum reflection loss （RL） value of -11.9 dB at 14.1 GHz for a specimen thickness of 3.0 mm, while for the nanocrystalline α-Fe microfibers, their absorptions largely take place at 15 GHz-18 GHz with the RL value exceeding -10 dB, with a minimum .RL value of about -24 dB at 17.5 GHz for a specimen thickness of 0.7 mm.

The structure, composition and morphology of the obtained samples were characterized by using XRD, FT-IR, UV-visible spectroscopy, SEM and TEM techniques. Their electrical conductivity, magnetic property and microwave absorbing property were measured by the four-probe meter, the vibrating sample magnetometer and the vector network analyzer, respectively. The results indicated that BFA particles were coated effectively by PMT polymer and some interactions between PMT and BFA particles existing in the composites. The conductivity of BFA/PMT composite is smaller than that of pure polymers and its saturation magnetization is a little smaller than that of pure BFA. The influence of the constitution and film thickness of absorbent on its microwave absorbing property is evident. The microwave absorbing properties of the BFA/PMT composites are better than those of pure BFA and PMT. When optimizing the mass rate of BFA/PMT to 0.3, the absorbent with 2 mm film thickness has the minimum reflection loss of -28.26 dB at approximate 14.24 GHz, and the maximum available bandwidth of 8.8 GHz, respectively. The results show that these composites can be used as advancing absorption and shielding materials due to their favorable microwave absorbing property.展开更多

The influences of thermal oxidation on the complex permittivity and microwave absorption properties of Si Cf/Si C composites were investigated in the frequency range of 8.2-12.4 GHz. Both the real and imaginary parts of the complex permittivity decreased after thermal oxidation. The composites after 100 h thermal oxidation showed that reflection loss exceeded-10 d B in the frequency of 9.7-11.9 GHz and the minimum value was-11.4 d B at 11.0 GHz. The flexural strength of composites decreased but fracture behavior was improved obviously after thermal oxidation. These results indicate that the SiCf/SiC composites containing PyC interphase after thermal oxidation possess good microwave absorbing property and fracture behavior.展开更多

Differential scanning calorimeter measurements show that nanocrystalline magnetic phase （α-Fe） has been formed in the amorphous matrix when it was annealed at 600℃. Hard magnetic phase （Fe2B） was formed in the microwires annealed at 750℃, which increases the magnetic coercivity. Microwave permittivity and permeability are found to be dependent on the microstruetures. The permittivity fitting results show that multi Lorentzian dispersion processes exist. For microwires annealed at 750℃, their resonance peaks due to the domain wall movements and natural resonance are found higher than those of microwires annealed at 600℃. The microwave absorption performance of microwires annealed at 600℃ is found better than microwires annealed at 750℃.展开更多

The structural and morphological analyses demonstrated that Fe nanoparticles were deposited on the surface of the MWCNTs. The electromagnetic properties of the MWCNTs were significantly changed, and the absorbing capacity evidently improved after the Fe deposition on the MWCNT surface. A minimum reflection loss of -29.4 dB was observed at 8.39 GHz, and the less than -10 dB bandwidth was about 10.6 GHz, which covered the whole X band （8.2-12.4 GHz） and the whole Ku band （12.4-18 GHz）, indicating that the MWCNT-Fe composites could be used as an effective microwave absorption material.展开更多

The binary phase of BaFe12019 and a-Fe is formed after reduction of the precursor BaFel2019/a-Fe203 microfibers at 350 ℃ for 1 h. These nanocomposite microfibers are fabricated from a-Fe （16-22 nm in diameter） and BaFe12019 particles （36--42 nm in diameter） and basically exhibit a single-phase-like magnetization be- havior, with a high saturation magnetization and coercive force arising from the exchange--coupling interactions of soft a-Fe and hard BaFe12019. The microwave absorption characteristics in a 2-18 GHz frequency range of the nanocomposite BaFe12O19/a-Fe microfibers are mainly influenced by their mass ratio of a-Fe/BaFe12019 and specimen thickness. It is found that the nanocomposite BaFelzO19/a-Fe microfibers with a mass ratio of 1：6 and specimen thickness of 2.5 mm show an optimal reflection loss （RL） of -29.7 dB at 13.5 GHz and the bandwidth with RL exceeding -10 dB covers the whole Ku-band （12.4-18.0 GHz）. This enhancement of microwave absorption can be attributed to the heterostruc- ture of soft, nano, conducting a-Fe particles embedded in hard, nano, semiconducting barium ferrite, which improves the dipolar polarization, interfacial polarization, exchange--coupling interaction, and anisotropic energy in the nanocomposite BaFe12O19/a-Fe microfibers.展开更多

The electromagnetic absorbing behaviors of ferrite/polymer coatings fabricated by dispersing Mn–Zn ferrite into epoxy resin （EP） are studied. The microstructure and morphology are characterized by X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscope. Complex permittivity, complex permeability, and reflection loss of ferrite/EP composite coating are investigated in a low frequency range. It is found that the prepared ferrite particles are traditional cubic spinel ferrite particles with an average size of 200 nm. The results reveal that the electromagnetic microwave absorbing properties are significantly influenced by the weight ratio of ferrite to polymer. The composites with a weight ratio of ferrite/polymer being 3：20 have a maximum reflection loss of –16 dB and wide absorbing band. Thus, the Mn–Zn ferrite is the potential candidate in electromagnetic absorbing application in the low frequency range （10 MHz–1 GHz）.展开更多

For the doublelayer absorber with an absorbing layer of α-Fe microfibers with a thickness of 0.7 mm and matching layer of SrFe12O19 microfibers with a thickness of 1.3 ram, the minimum RL value is about -63 dB at 16.4 GHz and the absorption band width is about 6.7 GHz ranging from 11.3 GHz to 18 GHz with the RL value exceeding -10 dB which covers the whole Ku-band （12.4 GHz 18 GHz） and 27% of X-band （8.2 GHz 12.4 GHz）.

文摘The impedance matching of absorbers is a vital factor affecting their microwave absorption(MA)properties.In this work,we controllably synthesized Material of Institute Lavoisier 88C(MIL-88C)with varying aspect ratios(AR)as a precursor by regulating oil bath conditions,followed by one-step thermal decomposition to obtain carbon-coated iron-based composites.Modifying the precursor MIL-88C(Fe)preparation conditions,such as the molar ratio between metal ions and organic ligands(M/O),oil bath temperature,and oil bath time,influenced the phases,graphitization degree,and AR of the derivatives,enabling low filler loading,achieving well-matched impedance,and ensuring outstanding MA properties.The MOF-derivatives 2(MD_(2))/polyvinylidene Difluoride(PVDF),MD_(3)/PVDF,and MD4/PVDF absorbers all exhibited excellent MA properties with optimal filler loadings below 20 wt%and as low as 5 wt%.The MD_(2)/PVDF(5 wt%)achieved a maximum effective absorption bandwidth(EAB)of 5.52 GHz(1.90 mm).The MD_(3)/PVDF(10 wt%)possessed a minimum reflection loss(RL_(min))value of−67.4 at 12.56 GHz(2.13 mm).A symmetric gradient honeycomb structure(SGHS)was constructed utilizing the high-frequency structure simulator(HFSS)to further extend the EAB,achieving an EAB of 14.6 GHz and a RL_(min) of−59.0 dB.This research offers a viable inspiration to creating structures or materials with high-efficiency MA properties.

文摘Rational construction of hierarchical multi-component materials with abundant heterostructure is evolving as a promising strategy to achieve excellent metal-organic frameworks(MOFs)based electromagnetic wave(EMW)absorbers.Herein,hierarchical heterostructure WS_(2)/CoS_(2)@carbonized cotton fiber(CCF)was fabricated using the ZIF-67 MOFs nanosheets anchored cotton fiber(ZIF-67@CF)as a precursor through the tungsten etching,sulfurization,and carbonization process.Apart from the synergetic effect of dielectric-magnetic dual-loss mechanism,the hierarchical heterostructure and multicomponent of WS_(2)/CoS_(2)@CCF also display improved impedance matching.Furthermore,numerous W-S-Co bands and heterojunction interfaces of heterogeneous WS_(2)/CoS_(2)are beneficial to promoting additional interfacial/dipole polarization loss and conductive loss,thereby enhancing the EMW attenuation performance.Based on the percolation theory,a good balance between impedance matching and EMW absorption capacity was achieved for the WS_(2)/CoS_(2)@CCF/paraffin composite with 20 wt.%filler loading,exhibiting strong EMW absorption capability with a minimum reflection loss(RLmin)value of−51.26 dB at 17.36 GHz with 2 mm thickness and a maximum effective absorption bandwidth(EABmax)as wide as 6.72 GHz.Our research will provide new guidance for designing high-efficient MOFs derived EMW absorbers.

文摘A microwave absorbing sheet with a high complex permeability and a relatively low complex permittivity is obtained by molding of the densely coated flaky carbonyl iron particles(FCIPs)by styrenebutadiene-styrene block copolymer(SBS)in the assistance of coupling agent modification.Direct molding of the core-shell FCIPs without adding extra binder results in a large permeability due to the high filling ratio(55vol%)of absorbents.Importantly,the permittivity is well suppressed by the dense insulate polymer shell on the FCIPs,avoiding the severe impedance mismatch problem of the high filler content microwave absorbing materials.Investigations show that modifying the surface of FCIPs by proper amount of silane coupling agent is critical for the coating quality of the SBS shell,which is verified by resistivity and corrosion current density measurements,and can be interpreted by improved interfacial compatibility between the modified FCIPs and SBS.The obtained microwave absorbing sheet shows a minimum reflection loss of-38.74 dB at 1.57 GHz and has an effective absorption bandwidth from 1.1 to 2.3 GHz at a relatively small thickness of 2 mm.

文摘BaFe10A12O19/poly（m-toluidine） （BFA/PMT） composites were synthesized by in-situ polymerization of m-toluidine in the presence of BaFe10Al2O19 particles. The structure, composition and morphology of the obtained samples were characterized by using XRD, FT-IR, UV-visible spectroscopy, SEM and TEM techniques. Their electrical conductivity, magnetic property and microwave absorbing property were measured by the four-probe meter, the vibrating sample magnetometer and the vector network analyzer, respectively. The results indicated that BFA particles were coated effectively by PMT polymer and some interactions between PMT and BFA particles existing in the composites. The conductivity of BFA/PMT composite is smaller than that of pure polymers and its saturation magnetization is a little smaller than that of pure BFA. The influence of the constitution and film thickness of absorbent on its microwave absorbing property is evident. The microwave absorbing properties of the BFA/PMT composites are better than those of pure BFA and PMT. When optimizing the mass rate of BFA/PMT to 0.3, the absorbent with 2 mm film thickness has the minimum reflection loss of -28.26 dB at approximate 14.24 GHz, and the maximum available bandwidth of 8.8 GHz, respectively. The results show that these composites can be used as advancing absorption and shielding materials due to their favorable microwave absorbing property.

文摘To develop the microwave absorbing(MA)properties of cementitious material mixed with mine solid waste,the iron tailings cementitious microwave absorbing materials were prepared.The iron tailings was treated into different particle sizes by planetary ball mill,and the physicochemical properties of iron tailings were tested by laser particle size analyzer and scanning electron microscope(SEM).The electromagnetic parameters of iron tailings cementitious materials were characterized by a vector network analyzer and simulated MA properties,and the MA properties of iron tailings-cement composite system with steel fiber as absorber was studied.Based on the design of the single-layer structure,optimum mix ratio and thickness configuration method of double-layer structure were further studied,meanwhile,the mechanical properties and engineering application were analyzed and discussed.The results show that the particle size of iron tailings can afiect its electromagnetic behavior in cementitious materials,and the smaller particles lead the increase of demagnetisation efiect induced by domain wall motion and achieve better microwave absorbing properties in cementitious materials.When the thickness of matching layer and absorbing layer is 5 mm,the optimized microwave absorbing properties of C1/C3 double-layer cementitious material can obtain optimal RL value of-27.61 dB and efiective absorbing bandwidth of 0.97 GHz,which attributes to the synergistic efiect of impedance matching and attenuation characteristics.The double-layer microwave absorbing materials obtain excellent absorbing properties and show great design flexibility and diversity,which can be used as a suitable candidate for the preparation of favorable microwave absorbing cementitious materials.

文摘As a heat-resistant wave-absorbing material,silicon carbide(SiC)aerogel has become a research hotspot at present.However,the most common silicon sources are organosilanes,which are costly and toxic.In this work,SiC aerogels were successfully prepared by using water glass as the silicon source.Specifically,the microstructure and chemical composition of SiC aerogels were controlled by adjusting the Si to C molar ratio during the sol–gel process,and the effect on SiC aerogel microwave absorption properties was investigated.The SiC aerogels prepared with Si:C molar ratio of 1:1 have an effective electromagnetic wave absorption capacity,with a minimum reflection loss value of-46.30 dB at 12.88 GHz and an effective frequency bandwidth of 4.02 GHz.They also have good physical properties,such as the density of0.0444 g/cm^(3),the thermal conductivity of 0.0621 W/(m·K),and the specific surface area of 1099 m^(2)/g.These lightweight composites with microwave-absorbing properties and low thermal conductivity can be used as thermal protection materials for space shuttles and reusable carriers.

文摘The SiCf/SiC composites containing PyC interphase were prepared by chemical vapor infiltration process. The influences of thermal oxidation on the complex permittivity and microwave absorption properties of Si Cf/Si C composites were investigated in the frequency range of 8.2-12.4 GHz. Both the real and imaginary parts of the complex permittivity decreased after thermal oxidation. The composites after 100 h thermal oxidation showed that reflection loss exceeded-10 d B in the frequency of 9.7-11.9 GHz and the minimum value was-11.4 d B at 11.0 GHz. The flexural strength of composites decreased but fracture behavior was improved obviously after thermal oxidation. These results indicate that the SiCf/SiC composites containing PyC interphase after thermal oxidation possess good microwave absorbing property and fracture behavior.

文摘This paper reports that amorphous magnetic microwires （Fe79Si16Bs） have been fabricated by a melt-extraction technique and have been annealed at 600℃ and 750℃ respectively. Differential scanning calorimeter measurements show that nanocrystalline magnetic phase （α-Fe） has been formed in the amorphous matrix when it was annealed at 600℃. Hard magnetic phase （Fe2B） was formed in the microwires annealed at 750℃, which increases the magnetic coercivity. Microwave permittivity and permeability are found to be dependent on the microstruetures. The permittivity fitting results show that multi Lorentzian dispersion processes exist. For microwires annealed at 750℃, their resonance peaks due to the domain wall movements and natural resonance are found higher than those of microwires annealed at 600℃. The microwave absorption performance of microwires annealed at 600℃ is found better than microwires annealed at 750℃.
文摘Multi-walled carbon nanotube （MWCNT）-Fe composites were prepared via the metal organic chemical vapor deposi- tion by depositing iron pentacarbonyl on the surface of MWCNTs. The structural and morphological analyses demonstrated that Fe nanoparticles were deposited on the surface of the MWCNTs. The electromagnetic properties of the MWCNTs were significantly changed, and the absorbing capacity evidently improved after the Fe deposition on the MWCNT surface. A minimum reflection loss of -29.4 dB was observed at 8.39 GHz, and the less than -10 dB bandwidth was about 10.6 GHz, which covered the whole X band （8.2-12.4 GHz） and the whole Ku band （12.4-18 GHz）, indicating that the MWCNT-Fe composites could be used as an effective microwave absorption material.

文摘Nanocomposite BaFe12019/a-Fe microfibers with diameters of about 1-5 μm are prepared by the organic gel- thermal selective reduction process. The binary phase of BaFe12019 and a-Fe is formed after reduction of the precursor BaFel2019/a-Fe203 microfibers at 350 ℃ for 1 h. These nanocomposite microfibers are fabricated from a-Fe （16-22 nm in diameter） and BaFe12019 particles （36--42 nm in diameter） and basically exhibit a single-phase-like magnetization be- havior, with a high saturation magnetization and coercive force arising from the exchange--coupling interactions of soft a-Fe and hard BaFe12019. The microwave absorption characteristics in a 2-18 GHz frequency range of the nanocomposite BaFe12O19/a-Fe microfibers are mainly influenced by their mass ratio of a-Fe/BaFe12019 and specimen thickness. It is found that the nanocomposite BaFelzO19/a-Fe microfibers with a mass ratio of 1：6 and specimen thickness of 2.5 mm show an optimal reflection loss （RL） of -29.7 dB at 13.5 GHz and the bandwidth with RL exceeding -10 dB covers the whole Ku-band （12.4-18.0 GHz）. This enhancement of microwave absorption can be attributed to the heterostruc- ture of soft, nano, conducting a-Fe particles embedded in hard, nano, semiconducting barium ferrite, which improves the dipolar polarization, interfacial polarization, exchange--coupling interaction, and anisotropic energy in the nanocomposite BaFe12O19/a-Fe microfibers.

文摘An Fe-based nanocrystalline alloy powder is important for application in microwave absorption,and the particle size has a critical impact on the electromagnetic microwave parameters.Therefore,it is necessary to study further the effects of the particle size on such parameters and improve the microwave absorption performance of Febased nanocrystalline powers.In this study,Fe-B-P particles were prepared through a synthetic approach consisting of an aqueous chemical reduction and a ball milling treatment.We investigated the effects of ball milling on the microstructure and electromagnetic properties of Fe-B-P particles.The experimental results indicate that the Fe-B-P particles synthesized through an aqueous chemical reduction are amorphous spheres.Fe-B-P particles with an original particle size of 200-1200 nm can be milled into an irregular shape with the size reduced to\500 nm after 0.5 h of ball milling,and subsequently,the particles become smaller with increases in the milling time,with traces of Fe2O3 generated on the particle surface.The results of the Mo¨ssbauer spectra show that a portion of the small particles demonstrate a superparamagnetic property.The volume proportions of the superparamagnetic component increase from 13.1 to 15.8%as the treatment time increases.We measured the permittivity and permeability spectra of Fe-B-P particles within the frequency range of 2-18 GHz.The reflection loss(RL)is-10 dB for an absorber thickness of 1.7-5.0 mm.The RL is-20 dB for an absorber thickness of 1.9-2.7 mm.The microwave absorption properties of samples with the same thickness are improved with an increase in the treatment time and are shifted to a higher frequency,which will broaden the bandwidth of the absorption as well.

文摘Magnesium-substituted Mn0.8Zn0.2Fe2O4 ferrite is synthesized by the sol–gel combustion method using citrate acid as the complex agent. The electromagnetic absorbing behaviors of ferrite/polymer coatings fabricated by dispersing Mn–Zn ferrite into epoxy resin （EP） are studied. The microstructure and morphology are characterized by X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscope. Complex permittivity, complex permeability, and reflection loss of ferrite/EP composite coating are investigated in a low frequency range. It is found that the prepared ferrite particles are traditional cubic spinel ferrite particles with an average size of 200 nm. The results reveal that the electromagnetic microwave absorbing properties are significantly influenced by the weight ratio of ferrite to polymer. The composites with a weight ratio of ferrite/polymer being 3：20 have a maximum reflection loss of –16 dB and wide absorbing band. Thus, the Mn–Zn ferrite is the potential candidate in electromagnetic absorbing application in the low frequency range （10 MHz–1 GHz）.
