Sustainable Upcycling of Office Waste Paper Into Cobalt/Carbon Aerogels for Highly Efficient Microwave Absorption

Electron, EarlyView.
Co/C aerogels (Co/CAs) are successfully fabricated with office waste paper (OWP) as the raw material by loading ZIF‐67 crystals. The optimal sample exhibited an effective absorption bandwidth of 5.6 GHz, which outperforms many biomass‐derived microwave absorbing materials.
