Promoting Electromagnetic Wave Absorption Performance by Integrating MoS₂@Gd₂O₃/MXene Multiple Hetero-Interfaces in...

Multi-component composite materials with a magnetic-dielectric synergistic effect exhibit satisfactory electromagnetic wave absorption performance. However, the effective construction of the structure for these multi-component materials to fully exploit the advantages of each component remains a challenge. Inspired by natural biomass, this study utilizes wood as the raw material and successfully prepares high-performance MoS₂@Gd₂O₃/Mxene loaded porous carbon aerogel (MGMCA) composite material through a one-pot hydrothermal method and carbonization treatment process. With a delicate structural design, the MGMCA is endowed with abundant heterogeneous interface structures, favorable impedance matching characteristics, and a magnetic-dielectric synergistic system, thus demonstrating multiple electromagnetic wave loss mechanisms. Benefiting from these advantages, the obtained MGMCA exhibits outstanding electromagnetic wave absorption performance, with a minimum reflection loss of -57.5 dB at an ultra-thin thickness of only 1.9 mm. This research proposes a reliable strategy for the design of multi-component composite materials, providing valuable insight for the design of biomass-based materials as electromagnetic wave absorbers.
