Abstract

The Zn0.5Cu0.5Fe2O4 nano ferrites were prepared by the solution combustion method using aloe vera gel. The polyaniline-Zn0.5Cu0.5Fe2O4 nano ferrite composites were prepared by Ex-situ polymerization method with different weight percentage ratio. The prepared samples were examined by X-Ray diffraction, SEM, EDAX, BET, TEM, VSM and Impedance analyser to investigate their structural, morphological, elemental analysis, average pore size and the porosity, magnetic, and dielectric properties, respectively. The cubic spinel structure was confirmed by X-ray diffraction patterns. Addition of PANI to zinc-copper nano ferrite exhibits shift in crystalline peaks towards larger angle. The existence of spherical and clumped particles was revealed by SEM examination. The retentivity and coercivity are determined and the magnetic moment values were decreases with increase in PANI to the ferrite nanocomposites. The ac conductivity constant at lower frequency and there is a sudden increase and decrease in its value as a function of frequency shows resonance behaviour. The CZF-1 (CZF 30%) composite shows highest ac conductivity and dielectric constant. The electromagnetic shielding interference studies were conducted for S-band frequency. The CZF-1 (CZF 30%) nano composite shows highest shielding effectiveness as compared to other composite in the frequency range 2 to 3 GHz. The experimental result showed that these materials are used for applications in electromagnetic interference shielding.
