摘要
With the combination of the dielectric loss of the carbon layer with the magnetic loss of the ferromagnetic metal core, carbon-coated nickel （Ni（C）） nanoparticles are expected to be the promising microwave absorbers. Microwave electromag- netic parameters and reflection loss in a frequency range of 2 GHz-18 GHz for paraffin-Ni（C） composites are investigated. The values of relative complex permittivity and permeability, the dielectric and magnetic loss tangent of paraffin-Ni（C） com- posites are measured, respectively, when the weight ratios of Ni（C） nanoparticles are equal to 10 wt%, 40 wt%, 50 wt%, 70 wt%, and 80 wt% in paraffin-Ni（C） composites. The results reveal that Ni（C） nanoparticles exhibit a peak of magnetic loss at about 13 GHz, suggesting that magnetic loss and a natural resonance could be found at that frequency. Based on the measured complex permittivity and permeability, the reflection losses of paraffin-Ni（C） composites with different weight ratios of Ni（C） nanoparticles and coating thickness values are simulated according to the transmission line theory. An ex- cellent microwave absorption is obtained. To be proved by the experimental results, the reflection loss of composite with a coating thickness of 2 mm is measured by the Arch method. The results indicate that the maximum reflection loss reaches -26.73 dB at 12.7 GHz, and below -10 dB, the bandwidth is about 4 GHz. The fact that the measured absorption position is consistent with the calculated results suggests that a good electromagnetic match and a strong microwave absorption can be established in Ni（C） nanoparticles. The excellent Ni（C） microwave absorber is prepared by choosing an optimum layer number and the weight ratio of Ni（C） nanoparticles in paraffin-Ni（C） composites.
