Abstract
B4C@CNT nanowires were synthesized on the carbon fiber fabric (CFs) surface to form CFs-B4C-CNT hybrid materials via thermal growth method for improving the microwave absorption performance. The microwave absorption property of the CFs-B4C-CNT hybrid materials were studied in the frequency range of 8.2–12.4 GHz. The results exhibited that B4C@CNT nanowires were decorated on CFs surface successfully. The minimum reflection loss (RLmin) value of 2 wt% CFs-B4C-CNT hybrid material was − 19.7 dB at 8.2 GHz with a layer thickness of 2.9 mm. And the maximum effective absorption bandwidth (RL < − 10 dB) was obtained over the frequency range of 8.4–12.1 GHz with a layer thickness of 2.5 mm. Furthermore, the microwave absorption mechanism of the CFs-B4C-CNT hybrid materials were discussed. This work demonstrated that CFs-B4C-CNT hybrid materials possessed high potential as microwave absorbers with good microwave absorption performance, which provided a new idea for the development of nano-hybrid materials to improve electromagnetic microwave absorption performance.
