The development of new electromagnetic absorbing materials is the main strategy to address electromagnetic radiation. Once traditional electromagnetic wave-absorbing materials are prepared, it is difficult to dynamically change their electromagnetic wave-absorbing performance. Facing the complexity of the information age and the rapid development of modern radar, it is significant to develop intelligent modulation of electromagnetic wave-absorbing materials. Here, CNTs/VO/ANF composite aerogels with dynamic frequency tunability and switchable absorption on/off were synthesized. Based on the phase change behavior of VO, the degree of polarization and interfacial effects of multiple heterogeneous interfaces between VO and CNTs and aramid nanofibers (ANFs) were modulated at different temperatures. With the increase in temperature (from 25 to 200 °C), the maximum absorption frequency of the frequency tunable aerogel is modulated from 12.24 to 8.56 GHz in the X-band, and the absorption intensity remains stable. The maximum effective switching bandwidth (ΔEAB) of the wave-absorbing switchable aerogel is 3.70 GHz. This study provides insights into intelligent electromagnetic wave absorption performance and paves the way for temperature-driven application of intelligent modulation of electromagnetic absorbers.

In this study, CO reacted with a curing agent through nucleophilic addition to form ammonium salts, enabling the stable capture and internal release of CO, which achieved gas-phase nucleation and foaming. Additionally, the introduction of wave-absorbing agents improved the absorption mechanism and promoted uniform foaming. This nucleation-free foaming process relies on the induced growth of gas nuclei and the synergistic effect of the wave-absorbing agents, effectively preventing the uneven foaming issues caused by traditional nucleating agents.

With the development of science and technology, there is a great demand for electromagnetic wave absorbing materials for both military and civilian purposes. Among them, carbonyl iron powder (CIP) has attracted a lot of attention due to its mature production system and good electromagnetic wave loss capability. However, the application of CIP is limited due to poor impedance matching, poor corrosion resistance, and poor oxidation resistance.

Given the limitations of single-function electromagnetic wave-absorbing materials (EWAMs) in meeting the evolving demands of complex usage scenarios, there is a growing need for structure-function integrated composites that offer a combination of microwave absorption, human monitoring, and thermal insulation. This study successfully synthesized two-dimensional (2D) TiCT MXene via selective etching of Al from the TiAlC MAX phase. By introducing MXene into a composite of hydroxylated CoFeO nanoparticles (-CFO NPs) and bacterial nanocellulose (BNC) to modulate the electromagnetic performance of the EWAMs.

With the increasing demand for effective electromagnetic wave (EMW) absorbers due to the proliferation of electronic devices and 5G communication systems, traditional wave-absorbing materials can no longer meet the current requirements. Thus, this research introduces a three-dimensional (3D) composite material consisting of PMMA@Mxene@Co₃O₄ microspheres, prepared through in situ self-assembly and hydrothermal growth. The strong electrical conductivity of Mxene, combined with the magnetic loss of Co₃O₄, ensures enhanced dielectric-magnetic synergy, leading to excellent EMW absorption.

A dual-band broadband absorber based on frequency selective surface (FSS) is proposed. This double-layer absorber consists of two layers of FSS structure; each layer has a unique construction and plays its wave-absorbing function in different frequency bands. In the low-frequency band, layer I is a transmission channel, and layer II effectively absorbs electromagnetic waves.
