Research progress on spherical carbon-based electromagnetic wave absorbing composites

Electromagnetic waves constitute an essential element of societal progress, and the environmental impact resulting from using electromagnetic waves warrants significant considerations. Carbon materials have garnered considerable attention in the functional domain owing to their remarkable electrical conductivity and dielectric characteristics. Notably, spherical carbon materials, characterized by their substantial specific surface area and tunable dielectric properties, have emerged as efficient additives for microwave absorbers. These materials excel in absorbing electromagnetic energy while minimizing energy dissipation. When incorporated into absorbers of varying compositions, sizes, and morphologies, these…
