Abstract
The SiCw/SiCf composites composed by SiC whiskers with core–shell structure and SiC fiber with alike-array structure were prepared without growth catalyst, hydrogen silicone oil (H-PSO) as raw material, carbon fiber as the matrix. SiC fibers act as supports for a nanomesh containing interconnected one-dimensional SiC whiskers. The results of studying the absorption properties of the Ku band show that the density of stacking faults decreases and the aspect ratio increases as the heat treatment temperature increases and they jointly affect the dielectric properties of the SiCw/SiCf composites. The minimum reflection loss of the SiCw/SiCf composites obtained at 1400 °C can reach − 29.75 dB when the absorber thickness is 3.0 mm, and the effective bandwidth is 2.25 GHz. The polarization relaxation and interfacial polarization in the unique structure improve the microwave absorption properties and broaden the absorption frequency.

1 Introduction
With the development of intelligent technology, electromagnetic wave as the core carrier of information technology is widely used in people's life [1]. However, in both civil and military fields, electromagnetic interference and electromagnetic pollution are inevitably caused, and it has become pollution source with greater harm, which seriously jeopardizes communication and the survival environment [2, 3]. Microwave absorption materials convert incident electromagnetic wave into other forms of energy dissipation through different loss mechanisms, thereby achieving the purpose of absorption electromagnetic wave. Common microwave absorption materials are mainly magnetic materials and carbon materials, such as ferrite [4, 5], carbonyl iron [6], magnetic metal [7], carbon fiber [8], and carbon nanotube [9]. It is difficult for a single lossy material to meet application requirements. Currently, materials with different loss mechanisms are compounded to improve their loss capability [10,11,12,13]. However, ferromagnetism and poor oxidation resistance as well as poor thermal stability make them unable to be used in harsh environments, limiting their applications. Therefore, it is urgent to research the absorption material with steady high-temperature resistance and corrosion resistance. Among them, SiC has attracted everyone's attention due to its high-temperature stability [14,15,16,17].
SiC fibers or nanowires are often used to toughen metal or ceramic substrates and have better absorption properties than SiC particles. Duan et al. [18] used aluminum powder as active filler to prepare SiCf/SiC composites with excellent mechanical and microwave absorption properties. The reflection loss of the composites could reach -56 dB, and the effective bandwidth was 3.4 GHz. Du et al. [19] obtained heterostructural SiC nanowires/SiOC ceramic by pyrolysis of polycarbosilane precursor and the minimum reflection loss reached − 10 dB at 13 GHz. As high-temperature microwave absorption materials, one-dimensional SiC material has attracted the attention of more and more researchers. However, in many cases, the yield of SiC nanowires is low, the uniformity is poor, and there are catalyst residues. A single SiC material has limited microwave absorption performance due to its poor dielectric loss, but the second phase substance such as composite magnetic particles in the SiC material have adverse effects on its high-temperature performance. The main research here is composite material composed of single SiC, and it is expected that the multiple structure and internal defects of SiC improve its absorption performance while ensuring its high-temperature stability.
In this study, SiCw/SiCf composites based on in situ growth of SiC whisker on carbon fibers were obtained by organic polymer conversion with low-cost hydrogen silicone oil (H-PSO) as precursor, carbon fibers as matrix, without growth catalyst. The composites with unique structure were composed by SiC whiskers (SiCw) and SiC fiber (SiCf) with fibrillar structure inherited from carbon fiber. The SiCw grown by this method has good quality and no catalyst pollution. Furthermore, the fibrillar structure of SiCf derived from carbon fiber, with the “alike-array structure” that improved the electromagnetic attenuation ability, broadened the absorption frequency.
2 Experimental
2.1 Preparation of SiCw/SiCf composites
Carbon fiber (Carbon Fiber Engineering Research Center, Faculty of Materials Science, Shandong University) was used as matrix preparation of SiCw/SiCf composites, and it was heated to 1500 °C for 2 h in argon (99.999%) atmosphere to remove surface organics. H-PSO (CH3–(SiO)n–Si–H, Jinan Guobang Chemical Co. Ltd., China) was precursor, and chloroplatinic acid (H2PtCl6·6H2O; Jinan Luli Chemical Co. Ltd., China) was cross-linked catalyst. Two drops of chloroplatinic acid ethanol solution were added (1 wt%) to 20 ml H-PSO, stirred with magnetic stirrer for 20 min, and kept at 120 °C. The cross-linked product was powdered by a sealing mill. As embedded powders, they were placed in crucibles to embed carbon fibers, and SiCw/SiCf composites was grown at 1400 °C, 1500 °C, and 1600 °C for 2 h in tubular atmosphere furnace under argon atmosphere, and the heating rate increase by 4 °C per min at 800 °C, and 2 °C per minute above 800 °C. Finally, it was decarburized in chamber furnace at 800 °C for 4 h. The sample prepared at different temperatures was marked as SiC-1400, SiC-1500 and SiC-1600.
2.2 Characterization
The crystal phase and composition of the SiCw/SiCf composites were identified by X-ray diffraction (XRD, D/MAX2500PC, 4º/min). Scanning electron microscopy (SEM, FEI Scios) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM, JEOL-2800) were used to characterize the morphology and structure. The Nano Measurer software was used to measure and calculate the diameter and the aspect ratio distribution of SiCw was shown in SEM images for measure, and the average was recorded. The sample and paraffin were mixed at a mass ratio of 1:3, and then pressed this into a toroidal shape with a 3 mm inner diameter and 7 mm outer diameter. The vector network analyzer is used to measure the electromagnetic parameters (ε′, ε″, μ′, μ″) in the Ku band, and the reflection loss (RL) was calculated by the transmission line theory [20,21,22]:
where c is the velocity of light, f is the frequency of electromagnetic wave, d is the thickness of the absorber material, μr(μr = μr′−μr″) is the complex permittivity of the materials, εr(εr = εr′−εr″) is the complex permeability of the materials, and Zin is the normalized input wave impedance incident on the material interface in free space.
3 Results and discussion
3.1 Morphology and structure of the SiCw/SiCf composites
Figure 1a shows the XRD pattern of the SiCw/SiCf composites prepared at 1500 °C. It shows three distinct characteristic peaks at 35.6°, 60.0°, and 71.7°, corresponding to the (111), (220), and (311) crystal planes of 3C-SiC (JCPSD file: 65-0360). In addition, the peak at 33.6° indicates high-density stacking faults in the SiCw [23]. Further analysis of XRD shows that in the SiCw/SiCf composite, SiC has a cubic phase structure and the SiO2 content is 3.92% (as shown in Table 1). As shown in Fig. 1b–d, the SiCw/SiCf composites contain SiCw and SiCf. Although there is no growth catalyst, the yield of SiCw obtained in this way is not lower than other methods. EDS analysis was performed on the head and stem of the whiskers as shown in Fig. S1. The whiskers were mainly composed of Si and C elements, with a small amount of O element. This also proves that chloroplatinic acid has not become a catalyst for whisker growth. The diameter of SiCw is generally hundreds of nanometers, and evenly covers the matrix. As shown in Fig. 2a, SiCw has core–shell structure with outer shell of about 10 nm. Given that the peak belongs to the diffraction peak of amorphous SiO2 at 22° in Fig. 1a, the outer layer of SiCw is amorphous SiO2. Due to the high-density stacking faults in the material, there are also a large number of dark stripes in the Fig. 2a (as shown in the red circle) [24]. In addition, SiCf retains the “alike-array structure”, which "inherits" the fibrillar structure of carbon fiber [25] (as shown in Fig. 2b). That is, when carbon fiber was used as matrix during the growth of SiCw, SiC replaced the position of C and retained the fibrillar structure of the carbon fiber and the expected “alike-array structure” of SiCf is successfully prepared. In addition, the SiCf becomes the support of the nanomesh containing interconnected one-dimensional SiCw as show in Fig. 1b, c. However, because the SiC radius is larger than the radius of C, the SiCf cracks. This structure has greater interface polarization than ordinary SiCf, and also increases the scattering and multiple reflections of incident wave, which is conducive to electromagnetic loss. In addition, the presence of cracks in the fibrillar structure improves electromagnetic resonance loss and impedance matching, which is beneficial to broaden the absorption band [26].
3.2 Growth mechanism of the SiCw/SiCf composites
The formation process of the SiCw/SiCf composite is shown in Fig. 3. The SiOC ceramic was formed by cross-linked of H-PSO. At high temperature, SiOC ceramic could generate SiC and silicon or carbon-containing gas due to phase separation. At the same time, a part of SiO2 was reduced by carbon around, and the generated SiO diffused to the surface of the carbon fiber and reacted with it to form SiC. As the reaction continued, the new SiO continued to react with the surrounding C and CO, and the generated SiC deposited along the lowest energy crystal plane to form SiCw [27]. Molten SiO2 covered the SiC crystal nucleus, and gaseous SiO and CO penetrated the silicon oxide film and continued to participate in the reaction at higher temperatures. After the system temperature was reduced, unreacted SiO2 covered the surface of the SiCw to form SiCw with core–shell structure (SiC@SiO2). The presence of SiO2 will benefit the material's impedance matching ability due to its good electromagnetic wave permeability. Previous studies have shown that surface SiO2 is consumed less and less as temperatures rise [28], which will certainly affect the absorption property of the material. In addition, as the whisker grows, carbon fiber as a carbon source participated in the reaction, and SiC replaced C to form SiCf, but due to the larger radius of SiC, a slight cracking occurred, as show in Fig. 1b.
3.3 Dielectric response of the SiCw/SiCf composites
As far as we know, the heat treatment temperature is an important factor affecting the growth of crystals, because it affects the amount of gas generated by pyrolysis and provides energy fluctuation for the nucleation and growth of crystals [27], which in turn affects the microwave absorption properties of the material. Therefore, three different heat treatment temperatures were selected to prepare the SiCw/SiCf composite to study its absorption properties.
SiC as non-magnetic material, the values of μr″ (imaginary part of permeability) and μr′ (real part of permeability) is considered to be 0 and 1, respectively [29]. So the investigation mainly focuses on the complex permittivity. In general, the relative complex permittivity is expressed by complex number (εr = εr′−εr″), where the real part εr′ represents the ability to store energy, and the imaginary part εr″ represents the conductivity and dielectric loss [30]. As displayed in Fig. 4, the samples have dielectric resonance peak, which the polarization cannot respond to changes in higher frequency electric fields. The imaginary part of the permittivity decreases first and then increases with increasing temperature. The imaginary part of permittivity of SiC-1600 is larger and the peak value is shifted to higher frequency. However, SiC-1500 has the lowest imaginary part of permittivity. Figure 4c shows the variation of the dielectric loss tangent of SiCw/SiCf composite with frequency, which is consistent with the trend of the imaginary part of permittivity.
From the above we can see that the SiCw/SiCf composite material is composed of SiCw and SiCf. However, temperature has little effect on SiCf because of the high-temperature structure that comes from carbon fiber. Therefore SiCw is the main reason that affects the phase structure and dielectric properties of composite materials.
In XRD pattern(as shown in Fig. 5a), the peak intensity ratios of the diffraction peaks at 33.6° and 41.4° (I33.6°/I41.4°) are used to measure the content of stacking faults in the SiC lattice. A larger ratio means more stacking faults [31]. Because temperature has little effect on the phase structure of SiCf, the I33.6°/I41.4° values in Fig. 5a can be used to characterize the stacking faults of the one-dimensional SiCw. The I33.6°/I41.4° values of SiCw prepared at 1400 °C, 1500 °C and 1600 °C are 2.47, 2.35 and 1.61, respectively. It shows that higher temperature is conducive to the reduction of stacking faults density. In general, SiCw forms stacking faults in order to reduce the energy required for growth. The higher temperature provides more energy, and the driving force for whisker growth increases, that is not need more stacking faults to promote growth. Therefore, as the temperature increases, the stacking faults density decreases. Kuang et al. [32] found that the charge separation at the heterostructure interface of stacking faults resulted in a large number of interface dipoles, which led to an increase in dipole polarization. This is why the dielectric loss of SiC-1400 is higher. Figure 5a shows that the stacking fault density of SiC-1600 is the lowest, but it still shows higher dielectric loss capacity (Fig. 4c), which indicates that there are other factors affecting the dielectric response besides stacking fault.
Figure 5b–d shows SEM images of SiCw in the composites obtained at different temperatures. At low temperature, some whiskers have molten droplets on their heads due to the low melting point of SiO2. As the heat treatment temperature increases, the molten SiO2 continues to be reacted, the diameter of the SiCw decreases and the length increases. The main reason is that the concentration of the reaction gas increases at higher temperature. Higher reaction gas concentration leads to increase of the nucleation point, which leads to increase in whisker production, thereby reduces the lateral growth of SiCw and increases the length. As the reaction continues, the head SiO2 is continuously converted to SiC, resulting in an increase in length. The length increases significantly, and it is easier to overlap each other to form conductive network [33]. As the distance between the whiskers decreases, the probability of electron jump transfer increases, which promotes the dielectric loss. That is why, despite the absence of high stacking faults, SiC-1600 still has higher dielectric loss capacity, which is related to the electron transfer caused by the high aspect ratio. It could also be the reason why the loss peak of SiC-1600 shifts to high frequency.
To sum up, although both SiC-1400 and SiC-1600 have higher dielectric loss, the main contribution mechanism is different, which is the high stacking fault density (SiC-1400) and high aspect ratio (SiC-1600), respectively. In addition, the polarization at the point defects on the SiCw and the “alike-array structure” of SiCf also lead to an increase in dielectric loss under the action of external electromagnetic fields.
3.4 Microwave absorption properties of the SiCw/SiCf composites
To evaluate the microwave absorption properties of the SiCw/SiCf composites, the reflection loss of SiC-1400, SiC-1500 and SiC-1600 with different thickness were calculated, as shown in Fig. 6a–c. The reflection loss of SiC-1400 reaches − 29.75 dB at 17.37 GHz when the absorber thickness is 3.0 mm, and the effective bandwidth is 2.25 GHz. The lowest reflection losses of SiC-1500 and SiC-1600 are − 22.28 dB and − 22.73 dB, respectively, which are not much different (as shown in Fig. 6d). Although the stacking fault density of SiC-1500 is higher than that of SiC-1600, it has been confirmed above that the high aspect ratio of SiC-1600 promotes electron transitions, thus showing higher dielectric loss derived from electron displacement polarization. The SiCw/SiCf composites prepared by this method are composed of SiCw and SiCf with a large specific surface area, which increases the interface polarization of the materials and improves the absorption performance.
The microwave absorption ability of the SiCw/SiCf composites is determined by dielectric loss and impedance matching [34]. To further study the microwave absorption mechanism, the attenuation constant α and impedance Zin need to be studied. In general, the closer the impedance of the absorption material is to the impedance of free space, the easier it is for electromagnetic waves to enter the material. The attenuation constant α represents the attenuation ability of the material to EM waves. The attenuation constant α and impedance Zin are calculated according to the following formula.
As displayed in Fig. 7a, SiC-1600 has higher α value, suggesting that the superior attenuation ability of SiC-1600 for the incident EM waves. Similarly, the impedance of SiC-1600 is farthest away from 1, and EM waves are most likely to enter the material. The absorption performance of the material is determined by the attenuation ability and impedance matching. Although the attenuation ability of SiC-1600 is better than that SiC-1400, the absorption performance is still worse than that SiC-1400. SiC-1400 shows higher attenuation ability due to higher stacking faults, while better impedance matching due to more SiO2 on the surface of SiCw.
According to Debye theory, the relationship between ε′ and ε″ is
where εs is the static permittivity, ε∞ is the relative dielectric permittivity at infinite high frequency. The graph of ε′–ε″ is called the Cole–Cole curve [35]. The presence of semicircles in Cole–Cole curve represents that the samples have certain relaxation polarization ability. The disordered curve in Fig. 8a–c indicates that there are several semicircles in the curve, which indicates that they have various dielectric relaxation processes under electromagnetic fields. There are several reasons for this. Firstly, the internal free charge move under the action of an external electric field, which is trapped and accumulated at the stacking fault of SiCw or the “alike-array structure” of SiCf, resulting in accumulation of charge, making the charge distribution uneven and dipole polarization more obvious. Secondly, the SiCw has higher aspect ratio and forms 3D network, thus electron transitions is more likely to occur between the whiskers, which leads to large electron displacement polarization and increases the multiple reflection of electromagnetic wave, as shown in Fig. 8d. Additionally, the high specific surface area of SiCw/SiCf composites also promotes the interface polarization. Overall, these relaxations corresponding to Cole–Cole curve should be attributed to the rich interfacial polarization, electric dipole polarization, and trapping center polarization in the unique structure of SiCw/SiCf composites, which is conducive to the improvement of dielectric loss, thereby improve the absorption performance.
4 Conclusion
The SiCw/SiCf composites were experimentally prepared based on in situ growth of SiC whisker on carbon fibers. The materials were composed by SiCw with core–shell structure (SiC@SiO2) and SiCf with the “alike-array structure” inherited from carbon fiber, which was prepared by hydrogen silicone oil as the raw material and carbon fiber as the matrix without growth catalyst. Among them, the SiCw have good uniformity, and the SiCf retain the fibril structure of carbon fiber. As the heat treatment temperature increases, the density of stacking defects of the SiCw decreases and the aspect ratio increases. The dielectric properties of SiCw/SiCf composites are attributed to the combined effect of stacking faults and aspect ratio of SiCw. The reduction of stacking faults leads to reduction of dipole polarization, which reduces the dielectric loss, but the increase of the aspect ratio leads to increase of electron displacement polarization, which increases the dielectric loss. The presence of SiO2 coated on SiCw is helpful to improve the impedance matching of the material. In addition, interfacial polarization and relaxation polarization are also conducive to the improvement of absorption performance. The whiskers grown at different heat treatment temperatures may exhibit different loss mechanisms. The minimum reflection loss of the SiCw/SiCf composites obtained at 1400 °C reach − 29.75 dB, and the effective bandwidth is 2.25 GHz in 3 mm thickness.
