Ultra‐Bandwidth Microwave Absorption and Low Angle Sensitivity in Dual‐Network Aerogels with Dual‐Scale Pores

Abstract Aerogels with porous structures offer an attractive approach to modulating electromagnetic parameters and enhancing electromagnetic wave (EMW) absorption performance. However, conventional aerogels are limited by their single‐scale pore size and fixed orientation, which constrain their EMW absorption capabilities. This study introduces aerogels with dual‐scale pores and dual‐network structure constructed via constant‐temperature freezing and secondary‐infusion freezing method. Multiscale aerogels with both micrometer‐ and submillimeter‐scale pores are constructed when the Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene and thermoplastic polyurethane solution is frozen and dried at a specific temperature, leading to an ultra‐wide effective absorption bandwidth (EAB) reaching 10.41 GHz in the vertical direction. Furthermore, to address the poor EMW absorption in the parallel direction, a secondary infusion freezing method is applied to form an aerogel with a dual‐network structure, which forms reflective interfaces perpendicular to the incident EMW in various directions. This adjustment enhances the EAB in the parallel direction from 1.58 to 5.93 GHz, marking a 275.32% enhancement, while the EAB in the vertical incident direction reaches 8.08 GHz. This design strategy overcomes the limitations of structural scale and arrangement direction, enriching the attenuation mechanisms of the absorber, while effectively reducing sensitivity to the direction of incoming EMW, offering new insights for designing efficient EMW absorbers.
