The current paper focuses on synthesizing a high-efficiency microwave absorber via incorporating the nanofillers of graphene oxide-polyaniline (GO-PANI), barium-strontium titanate (BST), and soft-hard ferrite within the polyester matrix. The nanocomposite magnets of (Ba0.5Sr0.5Fe12O19)1-x hard/(CoFe2O4)x soft (x = 0.2, 0.5, and 0.8) were prepared using sol-gel auto-combustion method. The GO-PANI and BST were successfully synthesized by in situ polymerization and improved polymerization, respectively. The phase structure, chemical structure, morphology, and microwave absorption properties of the synthesized nanocomposites were characterized by Xray diffractometer (XRD), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), and scanning electron microscope (SEM), vector network analyzer (VNA) techniques, respectively. The results showed that the synergistic effects of the combination of dielectric (BST), conductive (GO-PANI), and magnetic materials (hard-soft ferrites) provided the reflection loss values of less than 􀀀 20 dB (>99% absorption) in the X-band region. The minimum reflection loss of 􀀀 35 dB (>99.99% absorption) was obtained by the optimal formulation including (Ba0.5Sr0.5Fe12O19)0.2 (CoFe2O4)0.8, and the weight ratio of 1: 2 for both BST/soft-hard ferrite and hard-soft ferrite + BST/GO-PANI with the thickness of 1 mm. According to the results, the thickness factor plays a key role in improving the impedance matching. Consequently, the proposed nanocomposite can be employed as a novel kind of microwave absorbers with good impendence matching and high absorption.
