Abstract
To eliminate the harmful effects of electromagnetic pollution and ensure the safety of human daily life, developing novel high-performance electromagnetic wave (EMW) absorption materials is crucial for practical applications. This work uses MXene Ti3C2Tx and ZIF-8 to prepare a series of Ce element doped ZIF-8/Ti3C2Tx composite materials with different molar contents, and obtain derivatives CeO2-ZnO/Ti3C2Tx by the high-temperature pyrolysis method. Flower-like CeO2-ZnO nanoparticles are anchored on the surface of Ti3C2Tx. With an appropriate molar content of Ce (4%), CZT-600-2 sample exhibits the best EMW absorption performance, with the minimum reflection loss of -44.80 dB (1.2 mm) and the optimal effective absorption bandwidth of 3.81 GHz (1.3 mm). The results reveal that rare earth element doping is an effective method to attain high performance EMW absorption materials with “thin, light, wide, strong” characteristics.
