Summary: NiFe2O4/polypyrrole nanocomposites demonstrate negative permittivity in the low frequency regions and significantly enhanced electromagnetic wave absorption property in the high frequency regions. The enhanced negative permittivity is observed in the nanocomposites with different NiFe2O4 loadings, indicating the formation of a metal-like electrical conducting network. The minimum reflection loss of -40.8 dB is achieved in the 40.0 wt% NiFe2O4/PPy composites with a thickness of 1.9 mm. The research work provides guidance for the fabrication of nanocomposites with excellent electromagnetic wave absorption.

Summary: In this study, laser welding of rolled CoCrFeMnNi high entropy alloy to 316 stainless steel was conducted, resulting in defect-free joints. The microstructure of the fusion zone was mainly composed of a single FCC phase with increased hardness. The welded joints exhibited good mechanical properties, with fracture occurring at the fusion zone due to the development of a non-favorable large grain size microstructure.
