Abstract
Addressing escalating electromagnetic radiation pollution, this research emphasizes the development of advanced materials with enhanced electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding properties. In this study, reduced graphene oxide/Fe3O4 (RGO/Fe3O4) nanocomposites are synthesized via a one-step in-situ method. During the synthesis process, graphene oxide (GO) is reduced into reduced graphene oxide (RGO) by Fe2+ ions, while Fe3O4 nanoparticles are concurrently formed on the RGO surface, yielding the nanocomposite in a single reaction. Adjustments in Fe2+ concentration facilitate precise control over the RGO-to-Fe3O4 mass ratio, enabling tailored modulation of the EMI shielding efficacy in the resultant nanocomposites. EMI shielding is achieved through synergistic mechanisms, including superior dielectric loss properties of RGO, intrinsic magnetic loss characteristics of Fe3O4 and interfacial polarization loss at the RGO-Fe3O4 junction. Comparative analysis reveals optimal performance of the RGO/Fe3O4 when the GO-to-FeCl2·4H2O mass ratio is set to 1:15, achieving average total shielding effectiveness (SET) values of 89.8 dB.
