Summary: This study prepared a series of large-sheet GO using a thermal reduction method and investigated their MA properties. The results showed that the MA performance of rGO was related to the reduction degree and the size of the sheet. Large sheet graphene was more likely to form a conductive network, reducing the filler loading. By mixing rGO with different reduction degrees, the reflection loss and absorption bandwidth were significantly improved, while the loading was only 1.5 wt%.

Summary: In this study, coral-like Pal-dispersed Fe3O4/PANI composites were prepared with improved electromagnetic absorption performance by dispersing Fe3O4 and PANI nanoparticles on Palygorskite (Pal) frameworks. The composites exhibited an increase in specific surface area and fluffy coral-like structure with increasing Pal content, showing optimal reflection loss and broad effective absorption bandwidth. This work provides an inexpensive framework for dispersing nanoparticles in electromagnetic absorption materials, suggesting a new application of Pal.

Summary: This study introduces an innovative method for constructing adjustable surface conductive networks that can achieve a balance between enhanced attenuation and impedance mismatch in the microwave absorption mechanism. By employing a hierarchical construction strategy and quantitative construction technique, conductive metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) derivatives are introduced into the classic yolk-shell structure composed of electromagnetic components and the cavity to achieve remarkable optimized performance. The feasibility of this design is further verified through experimental results and simulation calculations.

Summary: Three-dimensional (3D) porous coral-like Co1.29Ni1.71O4 microspheres were successfully combined with reduced graphene oxide (rGO) to form Co1.29Ni1.71O4/rGO aerogels, serving as efficient microwave absorbers. The electromagnetic parameters of the composites can be effectively tuned by adjusting the mass ratio of Co1.29Ni1.71O4 microspheres and rGO, thereby improving their microwave absorption performance.

Summary: M-type barium ferrite (BaM) with ordered mesoporous structure (M-BaM) is prepared by a sol-gel process enhanced by mixed anionic and cationic surfactants, owning ten times larger surface area than BaM and 40% reflection loss enhancing. Then, M-BaM is compounded with nitrogen-doped reduced graphene oxide (MBG) via hydrothermal reaction, achieving optimal impedance matching and greatly increasing multiple reflections/interfacial polarization. The optimized MBG-2 (GO:M-BaM = 1:10) exhibits a minimum reflection loss of -62.6 dB and an effective bandwidth of 4.2 GHz at an ultra-thin thickness of 1.4 mm, thanks to the marriage of mesoporous structure of M-BaM and light mass of graphene, reducing the density of MBG.

Summary: Due to the growing demands for radar stealth and electromagnetic pollution prevention, lightweight, broad bandwidth, thin thickness and strong strength EM-waves absorbing materials are highly needed. This work successfully synthesized the porous Fe3O4/Ag composites by a self-propagating combustion method, which has the advantages of simplicity, green and high yield. The magneto-electric synergy components and porous microstructure effectively reduces the density of the composites and strengthens the absorption of EM waves.
