Increasingly severe electromagnetic pollution problem boosts the demand for light weight microwave absorbing materials with high absorption capacity over wide frequency range. Biomass-derived porous carbon has been regarded as one of the promising candidates for microwave attenuation as the biomaterials are vastly available and renewable. Here, macadamia nutshell derived porous carbon (MPC) was fabricated by activated carbonization. Evidenced by the morphological results, the resulted MPC demonstrates three-dimensional frameworks with tubular skeletons. Owing to such hierarchical structures, the resulted composite MPC-filled paraffin composites exhibit a minimum reflection loss of − 44.14 dB and effective absorption bandwidth of 3.84 GHz. Moreover, the resulted MPC can be explored as a practical absorber in a frequency range of 3.68–18.00 GHz via tuning of the thickness. The analysis of microwave attenuation mechanism indicates that such outstanding microwave absorption capacity is attributed to hierarchical structure tuned impedance matching conditions and multiple attenuation mechanisms. All results in this work open the avenue for the development of nutshell derived sustainable microwave absorber with high absorption capacity as well as broad effective absorption bandwidth, boosting the utilizing of biomass resources. Sustainable microwave absorbing materials based on macadamia nutshell-derived porous carbon (MPC) were fabricated by activated carbonization. The KOH activation is of great importance to the formation of hierarchical structure with multiscale pores. The as-fabricated MPC demonstrated high microwave attenuation capacity over wide frequency range. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
