Abstract

Complex symmetrical CuS nanostructures were synthesized in large scale by a simple wet chemical method at low temperature. As a semiconductor material with superstructure, CuS was well characterized and firstly introduced into PVDF to form nanocomposites. The substantial enhancement of wave absorption (-102 dB at 7.7 GHz) was observed by addition of CuS with a low filler loading (5 wt%). The mechanism for the enhanced wave absorbing properties was explained in detail.
