【 摘 要 】

Fe₃O₄@RF microspheres with different phenolic (RF) layer thicknesses are prepared by adjusting the polymerization time. With the prepared Fe₃O₄@RF as the precursor, Fe@C composite microspheres with rattle-like morphology are obtained through one-step controlled carbonization. This method simplifies the preparation of rattle-shaped microspheres from sandwich microspheres. Fe@C microspheres exhibit excellent microwave absorbing properties. The morphology and composition of the product are investigated depending on the effects of carbonization temperature, time and thickness of the RF layer. When the carbonization temperature is 700 °C, the carbonization time is 12 h and the polymer shell thickness is 62 nm, the inner hollow Fe₃O₄ is completely reduced to Fe. The absorption properties of the materials are compared before and after the reduction of Fe₃O₄. Both Fe@C-12 and Fe₃O₄@C-700 show excellent absorbing properties. When the filler content is 50%, the maximum reflection loss (RL_max) of the rattle-shaped Fe@C microspheres is −50.15 dB, and the corresponding matching thickness is 3.5 mm. At a thickness of 1.7 mm, the RL_max of Fe₃O₄@C-700 is −44.42 dB, which is slightly worse than that of Fe@C-12. Both dielectric loss and magnetic loss play a vital role in electromagnetic wave absorption. This work prepares rattle-shaped absorbing materials in a simple way, which has significance for guiding the construction of rattle-shaped materials.
