In the field of electromagnetic wave (EMW) absorption, the development of nonmagnetic materials with strong absorptive performance, low filling ratio, and wide bandwidth is of significant importance. In this work, five morphologies of In 2 O 3 nanomaterials are prepared by simple hydrothermal and annealing processes. The morphologies of products (including the lamellar flower-, lychee-, cheese-, nanocube-, and urchin-like In 2 O 3 ) are obtained by using different surfactants. The experimental results indicate that the lamellar flower-like In 2 O 3 has a minimum reflection loss (RL min ) of −52.04 dB (1.74 mm) and an effective absorption bandwidth (EAB) of 5.97 GHz (1.92 mm). Correspondingly, the RL min and EAB of lychee-like In 2 O 3 are −70.61 dB (2.55 mm) and 5.57 GHz (1.72 mm), respectively. A large specific surface area about lamellar flower-like In 2 O 3 can effectively increase the reflection and scattering paths of EMW inside the absorbing material, which is beneficial for the attenuation of EMW. This work not only demonstrates the great potential of In 2 O 3 in practical EMW absorption applications but also extends the research on nonmagnetic materials in the EMW absorption field.
