PPyNT/NR/NBR Composites with Excellent Microwave Absorbing Performance in X-Band.

ABSTRACT: To meet the comprehensive demand for flexible microwave absorbing (MA) materials, a novel MA rubber containing homemade Polypyrrole nanotube (PPyNT) is produced based on the natural rubber (NR) and acrylonitrile-butadiene rubber (NBR) blends. To achieve the optimal MA performance in the X band, the PPyNT content and NR/NBR blend ratio are adjusted in detail. The 6 phr PPyNT filled NR/NBR (90/10) composite has the superior MA performance with the minimum reflection loss value of -56.67 dB and the corresponding effective bandwidth of 3.7 GHz at a thickness of 2.9 mm, which has the merits in virtue of achieving strong absorption and wide effective absorption band with low filler content and thickness compared to most reported microwave absorbing rubber materials over the same frequency. This work provides new insight into the development of flexible microwave-absorbing materials.

Periodic architecture for high performance shock absorbing composites.

Project description:A novel composite architecture consisting of a periodic arrangement of closely-spaced spheres of a stiff material embedded in a soft matrix is proposed for extremely high damping and shock absorption capacity. Efficacy of this architecture is demonstrated by compression loading a composite, where multiple steel balls were stacked upon each other in a polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) matrix, at a low strain-rate of 0.05 s⁻¹ and a very high strain-rate of >2400 s⁻¹. The balls slide over each other upon loading, and revert to their original position when the load is removed. Because of imposition of additional strains into the matrix via this reversible, constrained movement of the balls, the composite absorbs significantly larger energy and endures much lesser permanent damage than the monolithic PDMS during both quasi-static and impact loadings. During the impact loading, energy absorbed per unit weight for the composite was ~8 times larger than the monolithic PDMS.

Study on Microwave Absorption Performance Enhancement of Metamaterial/Honeycomb Sandwich Composites in the Low Frequency Band.

Project description:With the rapid development of electronic technology and modern radar detection system, there is increasingly urgent demand for microwave absorbing composites working efficiently in the low frequency range (e.g., 1-2 GHz). In this work, a type of metamaterial/honeycomb sandwich composite (MHSC) was proposed and fabricated, which exhibited a light weight structure and excellent wave-absorbing performance in the low frequency band. The relationship between the wave-absorbing properties and the design parameters of the composite, such as the thickness of the wave-transmitting skin, the thickness and dielectric properties of the wave-absorbing honeycomb, was systematically investigated. The electromagnetic coupling interference between the honeycomb absorber and metamaterial resonator proved to be a crucial factor that affects synergistic wave-absorbing performance in the low-frequency band. Under the rational design, the incorporation of subwavelength-sized phase-gradient metamaterial units in the composite can significantly improve low-frequency wave-absorbing performance for greater than 5 dB (an increment larger than 100%); and the obtained MHSC exhibits averaged reflectivity (Ra) less than -10 dB in the low frequency band of 1-2 GHz as well as outstanding performance (Ra < -14.6 dB) over an extremely wide frequency range (1-18 GHz). The MHSC reported in this study could be a promising candidate for the key material in high-performance radar stealth and other related applications.

Interface Engineering of Titanium Nitride Nanotube Composites for Excellent Microwave Absorption at Elevated Temperature.

Project description:Currently, the microwave absorbers usually suffer dreadful electromagnetic wave absorption (EMWA) performance damping at elevated temperature due to impedance mismatching induced by increased conduction loss. Consequently, the development of high-performance EMWA materials with good impedance matching and strong loss ability in wide temperature spectrum has emerged as a top priority. Herein, due to the high melting point, good electrical conductivity, excellent environmental stability, EM coupling effect, and abundant interfaces of titanium nitride (TiN) nanotubes, they were designed based on the controlling kinetic diffusion procedure and Ostwald ripening process. Benefiting from boosted heterogeneous interfaces between TiN nanotubes and polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), enhanced polarization loss relaxations were created, which could not only improve the depletion efficiency of EMWA, but also contribute to the optimized impedance matching at elevated temperature. Therefore, the TiN nanotubes/PDMS composite showed excellent EMWA performances at varied temperature (298-573 K), while achieved an effective absorption bandwidth (EAB) value of 3.23 GHz and a minimum reflection loss (RLmin) value of - 44.15 dB at 423 K. This study not only clarifies the relationship between dielectric loss capacity (conduction loss and polarization loss) and temperature, but also breaks new ground for EM absorbers in wide temperature spectrum based on interface engineering.

Reduced Graphene Oxide Modified Nitrogen-Doped Chitosan Carbon Fiber with Excellent Electromagnetic Wave Absorbing Performance.

Project description:Lightweight and low-cost one-dimensional carbon materials, especially biomass carbon fibers with multiple porous structures, have received wide attention in the field of electromagnetic wave absorption. In this paper, graphene-coated N-doped porous carbon nanofibers (PCNF) with excellent wave absorption properties were successfully synthesized via electrostatic spinning, electrostatic self-assembly, and high-temperature carbonization. The obtained results showed that the minimum reflection loss of the absorbing carbon fiber obtained under the carbonization condition of 800 °C is -51.047 dB, and the absorption bandwidth of reflection loss below -20 dB is 10.16 GHz. This work shows that carbonization temperature and filler content have a certain effect on the wave-absorbing properties of fiber, graphene with nanofiber, and the design and preparation of high-performance absorbing materials by combining the characteristics of graphene and nanofibers and multi-component coupling to provide new ideas for the research of absorbing materials.

Preparation of reduced graphene oxide coated flaky carbonyl iron composites and their excellent microwave absorption properties.

Project description:In this study, a novel absorber with a high performance microwave absorption property was prepared by innovatively coupling flaky carbonyl iron (FCI) and reduced graphene oxide (rGO) nanosheets into a homogenous composite. The rGO nanosheets are tightly coated on the surface of FCI, which gives typical dielectric dispersion behavior of complex permittivity and resultantly optimizes characteristic impedance matching. Meanwhile, the introduction of rGO as a dielectric lossy material endows FCI with improved dielectric loss ability and unfading magnetic loss ability. In the frequency range of 2.0-18.0 GHz, the rGO-coated FCI composite gives a minimum value of reflection loss with -65.4 dB at 5.2 GHz when the absorber thickness is 3.87 mm and always shows effective bandwidth under -20 dB when absorber thickness is from 1.5 mm to 5 mm. The contribution of typical dielectric dispersion behavior in rGO-coated FCI is demonstrated by a delta-function method to characteristic impedance matching and the excellent microwave absorbing performance.

NiMnO3 Anchored on Reduced Graphene Oxide Nanosheets: A New High-Performance Microwave Absorbing Material.

Project description:With the increasing influence of electromagnetic radiation on precision instruments and organisms, there is an urgent need for research on lightweight and high-strength electromagnetic wave absorbing materials. This study has probed into a new composite absorbing material based on reduced graphene oxide (rGO)-NiMnO3, where the like-core-shell NiMnO3 is anchored on the rGO nanosheets to significantly improve the electromagnetic wave dissipation ability of the composite material using the inter-component dipole polarization and interface polarization. At the same time, NiMnO3 can effectively adjust the impedance matching ratio of rGO so that electromagnetic waves can effectively enter the absorbing material. At a thickness of 3.73 mm, the maximum absorption strength of rGO-NiMnO3 reaches -61.4 dB at 6.6 GHz; at a thickness of 2.5 mm, the adequate absorption bandwidth is 10.04-18.00 GHz, achieving a full coverage for the Ku band. As a new option for preparing lightweight and broadband electromagnetic wave absorbing materials, rGO-NiMnO3 is an ideal material for electromagnetic wave protection.

Preparation and Characterization of Zeolite/TiO? Cement-Based Composites with Excellent Photocatalytic Performance.

Project description:A zeolite/TiO? composite (ZTC) was applied to prepare a high-quality photocatalytic cement-based material (PCM). The acetone degradation experiment and micro measurements including XRD(X-Ray Diffractometer), SEM-EDS(Scanning Electron Microscope-Energy Dispersive Spectrometer), BET(BET Specific Surface Area Tester), FTIR(Fourier Transform Infrared Spectrometer) were conducted to characterize the photocatalytic efficiency and physicochemical properties of PCM, respectively. Results show that TiO? particles disperse on the surface of a PCM homogeneously and provide abundant active sites for photocatalytic reactions. Compared to a normal photocatalytic cement-based material (NPCM), the TiO? content of a PCM is lower and its photocatalytic efficiency is higher. The ZTC frees TiO? particles from the impacts of cement hydration products and increases the adsorption volume of acetone. The photocatalytic performance of the PCM was stable after repeated tests. Using the ZTC as a photocatalyst has a prominent effect on the photocatalytic performance of the PCM.

Rationally designed structure of mesoporous carbon hollow microspheres to acquire excellent microwave absorption performance.

Project description:In this study, we used a novel and facile hard-template etching method to manufacture mesoporous carbon hollow microspheres (MCHMs). We prove that the dielectric ability and microwave absorption of MCHMs can be adjusted by structural characteristics. When the average particle size of MCHMs is 452 nm, the paraffin composite material mixed with 10 wt% MCHMs can achieve a maximum reflection loss value of -51 dB with a thickness of 4.0 mm at 7.59 GHz. When the average particle size of MCHMs is 425 nm, the effective absorption bandwidth of the paraffin composite material mixed with 10 wt% MCHMs can achieve a broad bandwidth of 7.14 GHz with a thickness of 2.5 mm. Compared with other microwave absorbers, MCHMs possess high microwave absorption capacity and broad microwave absorption bandwidth with as low as a 10 wt% filler ratio. This excellent microwave absorption performance is due to the internal cavity and the mesoporous shell of MCHMs. By rationally designing the structure of MCHMs, excellent microwave absorption performance can be acquired. Meanwhile, this design concept based on a rational design of spherical structure can be extended to other spherical absorbers.

A Facile Synthesis of Novel Amorphous TiO2 Nanorods Decorated rGO Hybrid Composites with Wide Band Microwave Absorption.

Project description:Amorphous structures may play important roles in achieving highly efficient microwave absorption performance due to the polarization losses induced by the disorders, vacancies and other functional groups existed in them. Herein, a kind of amorphous TiO2/rGO composite (a-TiO2/rGO) was successfully fabricated via a facile one-step solvothermal method. The complex permittivity of the composites can be regulated by adjusting the addition of precursor solution. The minimum reflection loss of a-TiO2/rGO composites reached -42.8 dB at 8.72 GHz with a thickness of 3.25 mm, and the widest efficient absorption bandwidth (EAB) was up to 6.2 GHz (11.8 to 18 GHz) with a thickness of only 2.15 mm, which achieved the full absorption in Ku band (12 to 18 GHz). Furthermore, the EAB was achieved ranging from 3.97 to 18 GHz by adjusting the thickness of the absorber, covering 87.7% of the whole radar frequency band. It is considered that the well-matched impedance, various polarization processes, capacitor-like structure and conductive networks all contributed to the excellent microwave absorption of a-TiO2/rGO. This study provides reference on constructing amorphous structures for future microwave absorber researches and the as-prepared a-TiO2/rGO composites also have great potential owing to its facile synthesis and highly efficient microwave absorption.
