Abstract

The development of intelligent and portable electrics necessitates the creation of an enhanced electromagnetic absorption and broad bandwidth microwave absorber. The synthesis of nano cobalt ferrite (CoFe2O4; CFO) combined with hollow carbonized kapok fiber by the Sol-Gel method and annealing process is a promising approach. The microwave absorption of carbonized kapok fiber/CFO was enhanced, and the bandwidth broadened due to the dielectric loss microwave absorber carbonized kapok fiber synergizing with the magnetic loss microwave absorber CFO. The results demonstrated that the minimal reflection loss of carbonized kapok fiber/CFO-6 was −52.2 dB at 8.56 GHz, with a thickness of 3.37 mm, and the broadest effective absorbing bandwidth was 6.2 GHz, with a thickness of 2.31 mm. The simulation results, which were obtained using the CST MWS software, exhibited a high degree of agreement with those obtained from the experimental measurements. The strategy offers a prospective method for the preparation of enhanced absorption and broad bandwidth microwave absorbers.
