[en] The conducting protonated polyaniline (ES)/γ-Fe₂O₃ nanocomposite with the different γ-Fe₂O₃ content were synthesized by in-situ polymerization. Its morphology, microstructure, DC conductivity and magnetic properties of samples were characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), four-wire-technique, and vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), respectively. The microwave absorbing properties of the nanocomposite powders dispersing in wax coating with the coating thickness of 2 mm were investigated using a vector network analyzers in the frequency range of 7-18 GHz. The pure ES has shown the absorption band with a maximum absorption at approximately 16 GHz and a width (defined as frequency difference between points where the absorption is more than 8 dB) of 3.24 GHz, when 10% γ-Fe₂O₃ by weight is incorporated , the width is broadened to 4.13 GHz and some other absorption bands appear in the range of 7-13 GHz. The parameter dielectric loss tan δ_e (=ε''/ε') in the 7-18 GHz is found to decrease with increasing γ-Fe₂O₃ contents with 10%, 20%, 30%, respectively, but magnetic loss tan δ_m (=μ''/μ') increases with increasing γ-Fe₂O₃ contents. The results show that moderate content of γ-Fe₂O₃ nanoparticles embedded in protonated polyaniline matrix may create advanced microwave absorption properties due to simultaneous adjusting of dielectric loss and magnetic loss
