• FeCo/C hybrid nanofibers were prepared by electrospinning and subsequent heat treatment.
• The in-situ formed FeCo nanoparticles are uniformly dispersed along the nanofibers.
• The hybrid nanofibers display superior microwave absorption performance.
• The hybrid nanofibers show great potential as lightweight microwave absorbing materials.
FeCo/C hybrid nanofibers (FeCo/C HNFs) with short multi-walled carbon nanotubes grown on the nanofiber surfaces have been prepared by electrospinning combined with stabilization and carbonization. The in-situ formed FeCo nanoparticles uniformly disperse along nanofibers and are encapsulated with ordered graphite layers. It is found that the as-prepared FeCo/C HNFs exhibit excellent microwave absorption performance with low density and small absorber thickness. Reflection loss exceeding −20 dB can be obtained in a wide frequency range of 7.2–18 GHz for the silicone composites containing only 5 wt.% FeCo/C HNFs as filler by choosing an appropriate absorber thickness between 1.4 and 3.0 mm, and the minimum reflection loss reaches −47.5 dB at 16.6 GHz for a 1.6 mm absorber layer, indicating that the FeCo/C HNFs can be a promising candidate for lightweight, highly-efficient and stable microwave absorbing materials in X- and Ku-bands.
