Popis: The development of microwave absorbing materials with strong absorption capacity, wide bandwidth and light weight has always been a topic of concern. Herein, one-dimensional (1D) M (Co, Ni)@polyaniline (PANI) nanochains (NCs) with adjustable thickness have been successfully synthesized by reducing the mental ions under a parallel magnetic field, pretreating metal nanochains with KH550 and pre-oxidization of aniline monomer. It is found that Co has a more favorable absorption width for electromagnetic waves (EMW) and Ni aims at the absorption intensity. Furthermore, the effect of metal elements on adjusting impedance matching is more significant than their magnetic loss for composites. The minimum reflection loss (RLmin) of CoP2 can be up to -73.16 dB at 4.63 mm and the effective absorption bandwidth (EAB) is 4.98 GHz at 2.17 mm, while those of NiP2 are -65.06 dB at 3.88 mm and 5.02 GHz at 2.05 mm. The increase of PANI content can significantly reduce the matching thickness. And the RLmin of CoP3 and NiP3 can reach -58.72 dB at 2.32 mm and -65.96 dB at 1.59 mm, respectively. The absorption mechanism reveals that the matching thickness of the quarter-wavelength determines frequency location. And high absorption intensity is attributed to the synergistic effects of impedance matching, conduction loss, polarization loss, and magnetic loss. This work provides a theoretical basis for designing PANI or other conducting polymers coating magnetic nanochains for electromagnetic absorbing materials with strong absorption capacity, wide bandwidth and light weight.
