Synthesis and electromagnetic properties of PANI/PVP/CIP core-shell composites

摘要

The polyaniline/polyvinylpyrrohdone/carbonyl iron powder (PANI/PVP/CIP) core-shell composites were prepared by in-situ polymerization in the PVP aqueous solution using toluenesulfonic acid (TSA) as dopant and ammonium persulfate (APS) as oxidant. The PANI/PVP/CIP was systematically investigated using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), FT-IR spectroscopy, electrochemical workstation, thermogravime-try analysis (TGA) and vector network analyzer. The results showed that the PANI/PVP can dramatically improve corrosion resistance of CIP. Compared with pure CIP, the PANI/PVP/CIP composites exhibited better impedance match and excellent microwave absorption properties. The reflection loss was found to ＜-10 dB in the 27.3-39.5 GHz range at thickness of 1.1 mm, and the minimum reflection loss of -15.28 dB was observed at 29.47 GHz with a matching thickness of 1.2 mm. A possible mechanism of the improved microwave absorption properties of the core-shell structure was obtained.
