Preparation and high-performance microwave absorption of hierarchical dendrite-like Co superstructures self-assembly of nanoflakes
2017
Dendritic-like Co superstructures based on the self-assembly of nanoflakes that could efficiently suppress the eddy current were successfully synthesized via a facile, rapid, and energy-saving chemical reduction method. Since crystal structure, size, and special geometrical morphology, magnetism have a vital influence on microwave absorption properties, the as-obtained products were characterized by x-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, vibrating sample magnetometry, and vector network analysis. The prepared dendritic Co possesses abundant secondary branches that extend to the 3D space. Their dimensions, spacing, sheet-like blocks, and high-ordering microstructures all contribute to the penetration, scattering, and attenuation of EM waves. The composites present attractive microwave absorption performances in the X band, as well as in the whole S band (2–4 GHz). This work investigates the mechanism of absorption for the as-obtained Co, offers a promising strategy for the fabrication of hierarchical Co microstructure assemblies by multi-leaf flakes and introduces the application of dendritic-like Co as a highly efficient absorber in the S band and X band.
