Abstract
Electromagnetic (EM) interference presents a crippling risk to both human health and the dependability of technological devices. Due to their diverse advantages, metal-organic framework (MOF) derivatives have received much attention in developing novel EM wave-absorbing materials. Nevertheless, achieving desirable EM wave absorption capabilities in magnetic carbon-based absorbers through deliberate adjustment of MOFs remains a difficult task. In this study, a novel nanoporous carbon material (TiO2/C) has been successfully synthesized by a semi-amorphous material (Ti-BDC), which has excellent EM wave absorption properties. In detail, the minimum reflection loss (RL) of −49.7 dB and broad effective absorbing bandwidth (EAB) of 4.16 GHz can be reached with an absorbent thickness of 2.2 mm. The improved performance is mostly due to the dipole polarization of the functional groups and the even distribution of the nanoparticles, which form a seamless network. This promotes the dissipation of polarization and dielectric energy at the interface. In addition, the TiO2 nanoparticles on the carbon material improve the impedance matching, further enhancing the material's absorption performance.
