Abstract
FeCo@C with a hollow porous dodecahedron structure was obtained through carbonization of ZIF-67 etched with Fe3+. During the pyrolysis process, the organic skeleton of the ZIF-67 was carbonized, forming graphitic carbon and carbon nanotubes. The etching effect of Fe3+ with different concentrations on the morphology of ZIF-67 is studied. The MOF-derived porous carbon bimetallic nanocomposites exhibited stronger electromagnetic wave absorption performance than the monometallic ones. Specifically, the optimized sample has a reflection loss of −70.69 dB at 11.28 GHz, as the thickness is 2.07 mm. The enhanced electromagnetic wave (EMW) absorption performance of the nanocomposites can be attributed to the multiple interfaces and capacitive structure formed by catalytically produced carbon nanotubes. This achievement could be used as a reference for the development of MOF-derived porous carbon nanocomposite EMW absorbers.
