Graphene/polylactic acid; nano-Fe3O4/polylactic acid; and graphene/nano-Fe3O4/polylactic acid composite absorbers are independently produced by fused deposition modeling technology. The effects of the content of graphene and nano-Fe3O4 on absorbing properties are investigated. After measuring the electromagnetic parameters using the waveguide method, the absorbing property is characterized according to the transmission line theory. The distribution of graphene and nano-Fe3O4 in the matrix is observed by scanning electronic microscopy (SEM). The results show that the graphene and nanometer ferroferric oxide multicomponent absorbing agent helps to form a synergistic absorbing effect. In the frequency range 8.2–18.0 GHz; the absorber has the greatest absorbing property when the content of graphene and nanosize Fe3O4 are 5 wt% and 20 wt%, respectively.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
