Abstract

TiC nanoclusters densely grew on surface of metal Ti particles and were successfully prepared by a thermo-chemical reaction in acetone. The optimal synthesized conditions were 800 °C and 2.0 h under flowing acetone/Ar of 50 ml min-1. The morphology, microstructure and constituent of as-prepared composites were characterized by complementary analytical techniques. The TiC nanoparticles/Ti-paraffin hybrids had distinct electromagnetic (EM) loss abilities in X-band. Theoretic analysis showed that the EM wave absorption behaviors obeyed impedance match and quarter-wave law. This work confirmed the as-prepared composites were promising candidates as EM wave absorbers.
