Abstract Ferromagnetic gadolinium silicide (Gd 5 Si 4) nanoparticles significantly enhance the microwave absorption bandwidth of a polymer blend (PVB-PEDOT: PSS). These materials are critically needed for various military and civilian applications such as X-band (8.2–12.4 GHz) and Ku-band (12.4–18 GHz) absorption. A single 1.2 mm thick layer of PVB-PEDOT: PSS-Gd 5 Si 4 (PPGS) nanocomposite film shows the most promising bandwidth (8.2–18 GHz) with a minimum reflection loss of− 14 dB. Mechanistically, dielectric loss (tan δ e≈ 2.4) and magnetic loss (tan δ m≈ 1.1) contributes more efficiently, and standard microwave simulation confirms the stored energy is predominant in PPGS nanocomposite which enhances the bandwidth.
