Enhanced Microwave Absorption Property of Reduced Graphene Oxide (RGO)-MnFe 2 O 4 Nanocomposites and Polyvinylidene Fluoride

MnFe2O4 nanoparticles have been synthesized on a large scale by a simple hydrothermal process in a wild condition, and the RGO/MnFe2O4 nanocomposites were also prepared under ultrasonic treatment based on the synthesized nanoparticles. The absorption properties of MnFe2O4/wax, RGO/MnFe2O4/wax and the RGO/MnFe2O4/PVDF (polyvinylidene fluoride) composites were studied; the results indicated that the RGO/MnFe2O4/PVDF composites show the most excellent wave absorption properties. The minimum reflection loss of RGO/MnFe2O4/PVDF composites with filler content of 5 wt % can reach −29.0 dB at 9.2 GHz, and the bandwidth of frequency less than −10 dB is from 8.00 to 12.88 GHz. The wave absorbing mechanism can be…
