    Silicon carbide (SiC) is well known for their outstanding microwave absorbing properties. SiC nanomaterials (SiCNMs) are expected to have better microwave absorption performance due to their high specific surface area. To date, no study was reported to compare the dielectric properties and microwave absorbing properties of different type of SiCNMs. Therefore, the objective of this paper is to compare the dielectric properties and microwave absorption properties of different types of SiCNMs. In this paper, SiC nanoparticles (SiCNPs) and SiC nanowhiskers (SiCNWs) were characterised using SEM and XRD. In addition, their dielectric properties and microwave absorbing properties were measured using network analyser and transmission line theory. It was found that SiCNWs achieved higher dielectric constant and loss factor which are and εr’ =17.94 and εr″ = 2.64 compared to SiCNPs that only achieved εr’ = 2.83 and εr″ = 0.71. For microwave absorbing properties, SiCNWs and SiCNPs attained minimum reflection loss of -10.41 dB and -6.83 dB at 5.68 GHz and 17.68 GHz, respectively. The minimum reflection loss of SiCNPs and SiCNWs obtained in this study is much lower than the nanometer-SiC reported previously. These results suggested that SiCNWs can be an ideal candidate of microwave susceptors for various microwave applications

    SiC nanomaterial (SiCNM) is known for its excellent properties and has great potential for a wide range of applications. In this article, preparation of SiCNMs from different types of graphite was performed by microwave-assisted synthesis. Different types of graphite which are graphite flake (GF) and expanded graphite (EG) were used to react with silica for the synthesis of SiCNMs in laboratory microwave furnace at 1400 Â°C. It was found that SiC nanowhiskers (SiCNWs) were formed when EG was used, while irregular shaped SiC nanoparticles (SiCNPs) were formed when GF was used. β-SiC appeared as the only phase in the XRD patterns for both SiCNMs formed using GF and EG. SiCNWs and SiCNPs have interplanar spacing of around 0.25 nm which is the axial direction of [111]. The difference of formation mechanism is believed to be the origin of different morphology of SiCNMs synthesized from different types of graphite.
