Cordierite is widely used in high-temperature kilns and infrared heating because of its high infrared emissivity. In this study, high-entropy cordierite ceramics were prepared by a one-step sintering process, which extended the other properties of cordierite while reducing the sintering temperature. The phase composition, microstructure, electromagnetic wave absorption properties, and infrared radiation properties of high-entropy cordierite ceramics were investigated successively. The results show that by selecting several common oxides doped in equal amounts and holding the ceramics at 1100 °C for three hours, high-entropy cordierite ceramics (Mg0.25Fe0.25Mn0.25Zr0.25)2(Al0.5Ti0.5)4Si5O18 can be synthesized, and the sintering temperature of which is 200 °C lower than that of conventional cordierite. Compared with cordierite, without wave-absorbing properties, the magnetic oxides, oxygen vacancies, and pores in the high-entropy samples lead to magnetic and dielectric losses, resulting in a minimum reflection loss of −38.21 dB at 4.88 GHz, accompanied by an effective absorption bandwidth (EAB) of 2.56 GHz at a thickness of 4.70 mm. Meanwhile, due to the lattice vibrations and dipole moment changes caused by lattice distortion, the prepared high-entropy cordierite ceramics maintain a high infrared radiation (IR) emissivity above 0.85 at 8–14 μm wavelengths. In addition, MgO, Al2O3, SiO2, and ZrO2 formed a low eutectic mixture during the sintering process, which reduced the sintering temperature of high-entropy cordierite ceramics. This work is of great significance for expanding the application areas and improving the sintering properties of cordierite ceramics.
