Description
Summary:The polyaniline/Mn sub(0.8)Zn sub(0.2)Fe sub(2)O sub(4)(PANI/MZF) nanocomposite was prepared by an in situ polymerization method. The samples were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectrometer, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscope and vibrating sample magnetometer. The complex permittivity and complex permeability for the nanocomposites were measured by wave-guide method with vector network analyzer in 2.0-18.0 GHz. The reflection losses (R sub( )L of the nanocomposites were investigated according to the wave transmission theory. The results showed the maximum reflection loss of the PANI/MZF nanocomposite was about -20.6 dB at 14.4 GHz with a bandwidth of 5.6 GHz. In conclusion, a wider absorption frequency range could be obtained by adding polyaniline contain in the MZF ferrite. The PANI/MZF nanocomposite is a good microwave shielding and absorbing materials at higher frequency.
