Preparation and Electromagnetic Properties of Urchinlike Ni

Abstract:

Urchinlike Ni particles with different length and quantity spines were successful synthesized. The microstructures and morphologies of the resulting materials were investigated by X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. The amount of N2H4H₂O plays an important role in the morphology of urchin. The electromagnetic parameters of these urchinlike Ni were measured with vector network analyzer at 2-18 GHz frequency. The results indicate that the microwave absorbing properties are improved by the urchin structure.
