Abstract
Chain-like Co flower is synthesized by simply modulating the reaction conditions via a facile liquid-phase reduction method. The morphology evolution process and transformation mechanism from particle to flower and finally to chain-like flower have been systematically investigated. [001] is the preferred growth orientation due to the existence of easy magnetic axis. The microwave loss mechanism can be attributed to the synergistic effect of magnetic loss and dielectric loss, while magnetic loss is the main loss mechanism. In addition, the special microstructure of chain-like Co flower may further enhance microwave attenuation. The architectural design of functional material morphology is critical for improving its property toward future application.
Highlights
The microwave absorbing material has received extensive attention due to their prospective application in electromagnetic shielding coatings, microwave darkrooms, and self-concealing weapons in industry, commerce, and military affairs [1,2,3]
Once the NaOH is increased to 0.8 g, well-crystallized Co flower with the maximum and longest stings is obtained as shown in Figs. 1E and 1F
If CoCl2?H2O is increased from 0.01 g to 0.02 g and keep NaOH still at 0.8 g, chain-like Co flower is obtained as exhibited in Figs. 1G and 1H
Summary
The microwave absorbing material has received extensive attention due to their prospective application in electromagnetic shielding coatings, microwave darkrooms, and self-concealing weapons in industry, commerce, and military affairs [1,2,3]. While increasing NaOH addition may raise the number of reduced Co atoms and promote the rise of stings’ number and length and induce the Co flower rudiment growth.
