Nano coatings for anti−corrosion and electromagnetic wave absorbing can simultaneously implement the functions of assimilating electromagnetic waves and reducing the corrosion of materials caused by corrosive environments, such as seawater. In this work, a composite material for both electromagnetic wave absorption and anti−corrosion was prepared by an in−situ chemical oxidation and surface coating method using carbonyl iron powder (CIP), graphene oxide (GO) and aniline (AN). The synthesized composite material was characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), infrared spectroscopy (FT−IR) and XRD. The carbonyl iron powder−graphene oxide−polyaniline (CIP−GO−PANI) composite material was used as the functional filler, and the epoxy resin was the matrix body for preparing the anticorrosive wave−absorbing coating. The results show that CIP had strong wave−absorbing properties, and the anti−corrosion property was greatly enhanced after being coated by GO−PANI.

Three-dimensional (3D) printing technology has proven to be a convenient and effective method to fabricate structural electromagnetic wave (EMW) absorbers with tunable EMW absorption properties. To obtain a functional material with strong EMW absorbing performance and excellent mechanical properties for fused deposition modeling (FDM) 3D printing technology, in this work, carbonyl iron powder (CIP)/acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene copolymer (ABS) composites with different CIP contents were prepared by the melt-mixing process. The effects of the CIP content on the EMW absorption and mechanical properties of CIP/ABS composites were investigated. The CIP/ABS composite with a CIP content of 40 wt.% presented the lowest reflection loss (RL) of −48.71 dB for the optimal impedance matching. In addition, this composite exhibited optimal mechanical properties due to the good dispersion of the CIPs in the matrix ABS. Not only were the tensile and flexural strength similar to pure ABS, but the tensile and flexural modulus were 32% and 37% higher than those of pure ABS, respectively. With a CIP content of 40 wt.%, the CIP/ABS composite proved to be a novel functional material with excellent EMW absorbing and mechanical properties, providing great potential for the development of structural absorbers via FDM 3D printing technology.

Biological and mechanical properties of biodegradable polymeric composite materials are strongly influenced by the choice of appropriate reinforcement in the polymer matrix. Non-compatibility of material in the vascular system could obstruct the way of the biological fluids. The concept of development of polymeric composite material for vascular implants is to provide enough support to the vessel and to restore the vessel in the natural state after degradation. In this research, the polycaprolactone composite materials (carbonyl iron powder/polycaprolactone) were developed by reinforcement of the 0%–2% of carbonyl iron powder using the solvent cast three-dimensional printing technique. The physicochemical properties of developed composites were characterized in conjunction with mechanical and biological properties. The mechanical characterizations were assessed by uniaxial tensile testing as well as flexibility testing. The results of mechanical testing assured that carbonyl iron powder/polycaprolactone composites have shown desirable properties for vascular implants. Besides the mechanical characterization, in vitro biological investigations of carbonyl iron powder/polycaprolactone were done for analyzing blood compatibility and cytocompatibility. The results revealed that the materials developed were biocompatible, less hemolytic, and having non-thrombogenic properties indicating the promising applications in the field of cardiovascular applications.

Now there’re many researches on the electromagnetic radiation protection function of the cement-based electromagnetic wave absorbing materials, such materials have been widely used in various types of buildings. This paper proposed an idea for preparing a cement-based composite material by mixing functional aggregates with high content of Fe2O3 and SiC, that is, adding Fe3O4 powder and nano-SiC of different contents in the clay, and then sintering at 1190℃; the prepared aggregates showed obvious magnetic loss and dielectric loss to electromagnetic waves, and the numerical tube pressure could reach 16.83MPa. The double-layer reflectivity test board made of functional aggregates showed excellent electromagnetic wave absorption performance, its reflection loss was less than -10dB in the frequency range of 8~18GHz (corresponding to energy absorption greater than 90% EM), and its maximum RL reached -12.13dB. In addition, the compressive strength of the cement-based composite material at the age of 28 days reached 50.1 MPa, which can meet the strength requirements of building materials.
