Abstract

Hexaferrites are usually used in devices for frequencies of 8–75 GHz. In this work, it is shown that Sn-substituted hexaferrite can be used for electromagnetic shielding and at lower frequencies (for example, in the L-band and S-band) as absorbing materials. The paper defines a solid-state reaction technique for preparing BaFe12−xSnxO19 (0.1 ≤x ≤ 1.2). The samples are characterized by XRD, SEM, VSM, and VNA. The study shows that increasing the Sn-substitution leads to weakening the interaction between the magnetic sublattices. So, in general, the saturation magnetization (Ms) decreases. Low saturation magnetization at high coercivity valuesgives a high anisotropy field, which provides significant absorption and matching impedance. The sample with substitution of x = 1.2 is the most absorbing sample (more than 99.99% of the incident energy absorbed for 10 mm thickness). The investigated samples have the potential to be useful absorption materials for shielding production (materials that absorb electromagnetic radiation)
