In this study, multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) anchored on the surface of silica coated porous rodlike nickel ferrite (NiFe 2 O 4 @SiO 2) composite was fabricated, and its structure, composition, magnetic and electromagnetic (EM) wave absorption properties were studied. High-performance EM wave absorption properties of the ternary composite can be regulated by the coating thickness and the content of the absorber. The reflection loss (RL) was optimized to −67.8 dB at the matching thickness of 1.9 mm, and the effective absorption bandwidth (RL ≤ −10 dB) was 4.5 GHz (13.5–18 GHz) at the coating thickness of only 1.5 mm with the filler loading 40 wt%. The effective bandwidth can reach 5.3 GHz (12.7–18 GHz) at the coating thickness of only 2.2 mm with the filler loading 30 wt%. The broadband absorption, thin thickness, strong absorption and adjustable absorption properties endow NiFe 2 O 4 @SiO 2 /MWCNT composite with extensive prospects for EM wave absorption. • Porous cubic-rodlike NiFe 2 O 4 @SiO 2 /MWCNT composite was successfully synthesized. • The effective bandwidth can reach 5.3 GHz at the absorber thickness of only 2.2 mm. • The reflection loss was optimized to −67.8 dB at the matching thickness of 1.9 mm. • The thickness and the filler loading have great effect on electromagnetic wave absorption properties.
