Enhanced microwave absorption performance of light weight N-doped carbon nanoparticles.

ABSTRACT: Microwave absorbents with specific morphology and structure have fundamental significance for tuning microwave absorption (MA). Herein, N-doped carbon sphere nanoparticles and hollow capsules were successfully fabricated via oxidative polymerization of dopamine in different mixed solutions, without any template preparation or etching process. Compared to solid particles, the microwave absorbents consisting of N-doped carbon with a hollow structure showed enormously enhanced MA performance, exhibiting a broad effective absorption bandwidth (from 12.7 GHz to 17.9 GHz) and a minimum reflection loss of -27.2 dB with a sample thickness of 2.0 mm. This work paves an attractive way for simple and eco-friendly preparation of advanced light weight microwave absorbents.

Dual-functional SiOC ceramics coating modified carbon fibers with enhanced microwave absorption performance.

Project description:Multi-functional carbon fiber (CF) based composites have great potential as new-type microwave absorption materials (MAMs). However, it was still a huge challenge to integrate antioxidation and MA properties into CF based composites. Herein, the SiOC ceramics coating modified carbon fibers (SiOC/CFs) were prepared by a polymer precursor pyrolysis method. The X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) revealed that the SiOC coating was composed of SiOC, SiO2, and amorphous carbon phases. The SiOC ceramics as dual-functional coating not only heightened the oxidation temperature from 415 °C to 890 °C, but also highly improved the microwave absorbing ability from -12.60 dB to -47.50 dB. The enhanced MA performance could be attributed to multiple reflections in the cross-linked structure, various polarization relaxation processes, and the favorable impedance matching effect. The SiOC ceramics coating as a semiconductor could suppress the skin effect originating from the cross-linked CF network, thus leading to a favorable impedance matching behavior.

Super-light Cu@Ni nanowires/graphene oxide composites for significantly enhanced microwave absorption performance.

Project description:Graphene oxide (GO) was rarely used as microwave absorption (MA) material due to its lower dielectric loss compared with reduced GO (RGO). However, the characteristics of low conductivity, light weight, and large surface area were beneficial to the impedance matching for absorbers already containing highly conductive metal materials. Cu@Ni nanowires are promising MA materials due to the desired dielectric loss from copper and excellent magnetic loss from nickel. However, the high density was an impediment to its further application. Combining Cu@Ni nanowires with GO should be an effective solution to decrease the absorber's density and improve its MA properties. Herein, we demonstrated that Cu@Ni nanowires/GO composites exhibited enhanced MA capacities compared with Cu@Ni nanowires or GO alone, and the minimum reflection loss reached -42.8 dB at 16.9 GHz with a thickness of 2.1 mm. The enhanced MA performance mainly originated from good impedance matching, as a result of the addition of low conductivity of GO. To confirm this point, the MA performance of Cu@Ni nanowires/RGO was studied, and unsurprisingly, weak MA performance was obtained. Our work provides a new strategy to decrease the density, broaden the frequency band and tune MA performance of composites.

Facile Synthesis of Cobalt-Doped Porous Composites with Amorphous Carbon/Zn Shell for High-Performance Microwave Absorption.

Project description:A facile method for the preparation of microwave absorbers with low density, high microwave absorptivity, and broad band is of paramount importance to the progress in practical application. Herein, commonly-used metal organic frameworks (MOFs) prepared just by mechanical stirring in methanol at room temperature were chosen as sacrificial templates to synthesize porous carbon composites with tunable dielectric and magnetic properties. With the replacement of Co atoms on the surface of zeolitic imidazolate framework-67 (ZIF-67) by Zn atoms, a Co-doped porous carbon composite with a low-dielectric amorphous carbon/Zn shell was constructed after annealing, leading to excellent impedance matching condition. Consequently, the as-obtained composite (Co/C@C-800) shows marvelous microwave absorption properties with an absorption capacity of -43.97 dB and a corresponding effective absorption bandwidth of 4.1 GHz, far exceeding that of the traditional porous carbon and composites directly derived from ZIF-67. The results provide a convenient way to modify MOFs for enhanced microwave absorption materials from the synergy of dielectric and magnetic losses.

Yolk-Shell CoNi@N-Doped Carbon-CoNi@CNTs for Enhanced Microwave Absorption, Photothermal, Anti-Corrosion, and Antimicrobial Properties.

Project description:The previous studies mainly focused on improving microwave absorbing (MA) performances of MA materials. Even so, these designed MA materials were very difficult to be employed in complex and changing environments owing to their single-functionalities. Herein, a combined Prussian blue analogues derived and catalytical chemical vapor deposition strategy was proposed to produce hierarchical cubic sea urchin-like yolk-shell CoNi@N-doped carbon (NC)-CoNi@carbon nanotubes (CNTs) mixed-dimensional multicomponent nanocomposites (MCNCs), which were composed of zero-dimensional CoNi nanoparticles, three-dimensional NC nanocubes and one-dimensional CNTs. Because of good impedance matching and attenuation characteristics, the designed CoNi@NC-CoNi@CNTs mixed-dimensional MCNCs exhibited excellent MA performances, which achieved a minimum reflection loss (RLmin) of -71.70 dB at 2.78 mm and Radar Cross section value of -53.23 dB m2. More importantly, the acquired results demonstrated that CoNi@NC-CoNi@CNTs MCNCs presented excellent photothermal, antimicrobial and anti-corrosion properties owing to their hierarchical cubic sea urchin-like yolk-shell structure, highlighting their potential multifunctional applications. It could be seen that this finding not only presented a generalizable route to produce hierarchical cubic sea urchin-like yolk-shell magnetic NC-CNTs-based mixed-dimensional MCNCs, but also provided an effective strategy to develop multifunctional MCNCs and improve their environmental adaptabilities.

Three-Dimensional Ordered Mesoporous Carbon Spheres Modified with Ultrafine Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles for Enhanced Microwave Absorption Properties.

Project description:Currently, electromagnetic radiation and interference have a significant effect on the operation of electronic devices and human health systems. Thus, developing excellent microwave absorbers have a huge significance in the material research field. Herein, a kind of ultrafine zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles (NPs) supported on three-dimensional (3D) ordered mesoporous carbon spheres (ZnO/OMCS) is prepared from silica inverse opal by using phenolic resol precursor as carbon source. The prepared lightweight ZnO/OMCS nanocomposites exhibit 3D ordered carbon sphere array and highly dispersed ultrafine ZnO NPs on the mesoporous cell walls of carbon spheres. ZnO/OMCS-30 shows microwave absorbing ability with a strong absorption (- 39.3 dB at 10.4 GHz with a small thickness of 2 mm) and a broad effective absorption bandwidth (9.1 GHz). The outstanding microwave absorbing ability benefits to the well-dispersed ultrafine ZnO NPs and the 3D ordered mesoporous carbon spheres structure. This work opened up a unique way for developing lightweight and high-efficient carbon-based microwave absorbing materials.

Enhanced microwave absorption performance of Fe3Al flakes by optimizing the carbon nanotube coatings.

Project description:Fe3Al is a good magnetic loss absorber for microwave absorption. However, due to the relatively high density and poor impedance matching ratio, the potential of Fe3Al cannot be fully released. Herein, a dielectric loss absorber of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) is coupled with Fe3Al to form Fe3Al/CNTs composite absorbers. CNTs are randomly tangled and coated on the surface of the Fe3Al flakes, forming a connecting conductive network. By carefully tuning the content of CNTs, the optimized Fe3Al/CNTs composite absorber with 1.5% of CNTs can combine both magnetic loss and dielectric loss mechanisms, thus achieving an impedance matching ratio close to 1 while keeping strong attenuation for enhanced microwave absorption. As a result, an effective absorption bandwidth (RL ≤ -10 dB) of 4.73 GHz at a thickness of 2 mm is achieved.

Doped, conductive SiO 2 nanoparticles for large microwave absorption.

Project description:Although many materials have been studied for the purpose of microwave absorption, SiO2 has never been reported as a good candidate. In this study, we present for the first time that doped, microwave conductive SiO2 nanoparticles can possess an excellent microwave absorbing performance. A large microwave reflection loss (RL) of -55.09 dB can be obtained. The large microwave absorption originates mainly from electrical relaxation rather than the magnetic relaxation of the incoming microwave field. The electrical relaxation is attributed to a large electrical conductivity that is enabled by the incorporation of heterogeneous (N, C and Cl) atoms. The removal of the magnetic susceptibility only results in a negligible influence of the microwave absorption. In contrast, the removal of the heterogeneous atoms leads to a large decrease in the electrical conductivity and microwave absorption performance. Meanwhile, the microwave absorption characteristics can be largely adjusted with a change of the thickness, which provides large flexibility for various microwave absorption applications.

The Enhanced Lithium-Storage Performance for MnO Nanoparticles Anchored on Electrospun Nitrogen-Doped Carbon Fibers.

Project description:Manganese monoxide (MnO) is a promising anode material in the lithium-ion battery for its high capacity, low operation potential, and environmental benignity. However, its application is impeded by poor rate capability and rapid capacity fading. In this work, a MnO/carbon hybrid material, in which small-sized MnO nanoparticles are tightly anchored on carbon fibers (denoted as MnO@CFs), was prepared by annealing the electrospun precursor fibers at 650 °C. When applied as the anode material of the Li-ion battery, the small size of MnO shortens the Li-ion diffusion path, and the carbon fibers not only greatly improve the conductivity but also efficiently buffer the MnO structure strain during the charge⁻discharge process, endowing the MnO@CFs electrode with a good rate capability (185 mAh g-1 at 5 A g-1) and cyclic stability (406 mAh g-1 after 500 cycles at 1.0 A g-1).

Enhanced Microwave Absorption Properties of α-Fe₂O₃-Filled Ordered Mesoporous Carbon Nanorods.

Project description:A novel kind of α-Fe₂O₃-filled ordered mesoporous carbon nanorods has been synthesized by a facial hydrothermal method. Compared with dendritic α-Fe₂O₃ micropines, both a broader effective absorption range-from 10.5 GHz to 16.5 GHz with reflection loss (RL) less than -10 dB-and a thinner matching thickness of 2.0 mm have been achieved in the frequency range 2-18 GHz. The enhanced microwave absorption properties evaluated by the RL are attributed to the enhanced dielectric loss resulting from the intrinsic physical properties and special structures.

Enhanced Microwave Absorption Bandwidth in Graphene-Encapsulated Iron Nanoparticles with Core-Shell Structure.

Project description:Graphene-encapsulated iron nanoparticles (Fe(G)) hold great promise as microwave absorbers owing to the combined dielectric loss of the graphene shell and the magnetic loss of the ferromagnetic metal core. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) revealed transition metal nanoparticles encapsulated by graphene layers. The microwave electromagnetic parameters and reflection loss (R) of the Fe(G) were investigated. Graphene provided Fe(G) with a distinctive dielectric behavior via interfacial polarizations taking place at the interface between the iron cores and the graphene shells. The R of Fe(G)/paraffin composites with different Fe(G) contents and coating thickness was simulated according to the transmit-line theory and the measured complex permittivity and permeability. The Fe(G)/paraffin composites showed an excellent microwave absorption with a minimum calculated R of -58 dB at 11 GHz and a 60 wt% Fe(G) loading. The composites showed a wide bandwidth (the bandwidth of less than -10 dB was about 11 GHz). The R of composites with 1-3 mm coating thickness was measured using the Arch method. The absorption position was in line with the calculated results, suggesting that the graphene-coated iron nanoparticles can generate a suitable electromagnetic match and provide an intense microwave absorption. Excellent Fe(G) microwave absorbers can be obtained by selecting optimum layer numbers and Fe(G) loadings in the composites.
