Zheng Cheng et al.

Summary: In this study, a high-performance electromagnetic wave-absorbing (EMA) material was developed for use in high-temperature environments. The ultralight graphene/polyaramid composite foam demonstrated wideband electromagnetic wave absorption capabilities in both gigahertz and terahertz bands, with an increased service temperature of 300 degrees C. Strong interfacial pi-pi interactions between graphene and polyaramids were found to enhance the foam's EMA performance, while also promoting PA to act as an antioxidation barrier layer for graphene at high temperatures. Furthermore, the composite foam showed excellent compressive, thermal insulating, and flame-retardant properties, making it a promising candidate for next-generation EMA materials in harsh environments.
