Several analytical techniques including scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Received in revised form optical microscope (OM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), transmission electron microscope (TEM), 21 September 2015 X-ray diffraction (XRD) are systematically employed to characterize the FeNi-FG. The results show that Accepted 22 September 2015 the pretreated flake graphite is fully wrapped by FeNi alloy which consist of FeNi3 phase, and the formed Available online 28 September 2015 FeNi-FG possesses saturation magnetization of 37.5emu/g. The paraffin-based composite filled with FeNi- FG exhibits effective electromagnetic impedance matching and ex
