Electromagnetic wave-absorbing materials (EWAMs) are susceptible to failure in complex chemical environments. It is urgent to develop composites with high-efficiency electromagnetic wave (EMW) absorption and strong corrosion resistance. In the work, polyaniline (PANI) is in-situ polymerized on the surface of oxidized carbon nanohorns (ox-CNHs) to create a core-shell composite of ox-CNHs@PANI. By adjusting the thickness of the PANI shell and effectively regulating the electromagnetic parameters of the composite material, excellent impedance matching and efficient EMW absorption are achieved. At a thickness of 2.22 mm, the composite exhibits a reflection loss peak (RL_min) and a maximum effective absorption broadband (EAB) of −66.7 dB and 5.68 GHz, respectively. Additionally, the dense PANI shell effectively prevents contact between the corrosive medium and ox-CNHs, which significantly reduces the possibility of corrosion. Due to the formation of the ox-CNHs/PANI interface, the ox-CNHs@PANI composite exhibits strong corrosion resistance under acidic, alkaline, and neutral conditions. The ox-CNHs@PANI composite exhibits excellent EMW absorption and strong corrosion resistance, offering a new approach to developing advanced bifunctional materials.
