Microwave absorption characterization and wettability of magnetic nano iron oxide/recycled PET nanofibers web

This paper describes the microwave characterization and wettability of a uniform and light magnetic nanofibers web. Iron oxide nanoparticles/recycled poly (ethylene terephthalate) nanofibers web (Fe₃O₄ NPs/RPET NFs web) were fabricated from bath-sonication solution via electrospinning method. For environmental conservation and economic reasons, RPET instead of virgin material was used. After synthesizing magnetic Fe₃O₄ NPs with an average diameter of 35?nm by precipitation method using iron sulfate and sodium hydroxide, Fe₃O₄ NPs/RPET NFs web was made. The main objective of this work is to show how Fe₃O₄ NPs are able to significantly modify electromagnetic properties at X-band frequencies. Microwave characterization is based on the microwave scattering parameters measured in the X-band (8–12?GHz). Various characterization methods, including field emission-scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), have been used to study morphologies, crystalline structure, magnetic, and wettability properties of NFs web. The saturation magnetization of the Fe₃O₄ NPs/RPET NFs web at a concentration of 5% was 2.79?emu/g. The mathematical model was estimated for magnetization, diameter and concentration by MathWorks Model Predictive Control Toolbax Software. The wettability, reflection coefficient, absorption coefficient, and EMI shielding of Fe₃O₄ NPs/RPET NFs web have been improved compared to RPET NFs web.
