Abstract
In this paper, a ternary composite wave-absorbing material consisting of silicon carbide (SiC), natural flake graphite (NFG) and nickel (Ni) has been successfully fabricated through a combined process of selective laser sintering (SLS) and vacuum pressure impregnation. The study investigated how the content of SiC powder affected the absorption capacity and mechanical performances of the composites. The findings indicate that as the proportion of SiC powder rises, the porosity of the composites diminishes, while the bending strength increases. As the content of SiC is 40 wt%, the porosity is 52.14 % and the flexure strength is 9.58 MPa, approximately five times greater than that of graphite-type ceramic preforms. The composite’s electromagnetic wave-absorbing capability initially improves and then declines with the increase of SiC content. When the SiC content is 10 wt% and the thickness is 1.5 mm, the composite absorbing material exhibits optimal electromagnetic absorption performance, with a minimum reflection loss (RLmin)of −44.04 dB and an effective absorption bandwidth (EAB) of 5.42 GHz (8.24–13.66 GHz). The composite material, characterized by its lightweight, high strength, and broad frequency range, shows promise for applications in microwave absorption technology.
期刊介绍:
The journal provides an international medium for the publication of theoretical and experimental studies and reviews related to the electronic, electrochemical, ionic, magnetic, optical, and biosensing properties of solid state materials in bulk, thin film and particulate forms. Papers dealing with synthesis, processing, characterization, structure, physical properties and computational aspects of nano-crystalline, crystalline, amorphous and glassy forms of ceramics, semiconductors, layered insertion compounds, low-dimensional compounds and systems, fast-ion conductors, polymers and dielectrics are viewed as suitable for publication. Articles focused on nano-structured aspects of these advanced solid-state materials will also be considered suitable.
