In this work, we propose novel layer-structured polymer composites (PCs) for manipulating the electromagnetic (EM) wave transport, which holds unique electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding features. The as-prepared PCs with a multilayered structure exhibits significant improvement in overall EMI shielding effectiveness (EMI SE) by adjusting the contents and distribution of electrical and magnetic loss fillers. The layer-structured PCs with low nanofiller content (5 wt % graphene nanosheets (GNSs) and 15 wt % Fe3O4) and a thickness of only 2 mm exhibited ultrahigh electrical conductivity and excellent EMI SE, reaching up to 2000 S/m and 45.7 dB in the X-band, respectively. The increased EMI SE of the layer-structured PCs was mainly based on the improved absorption rather than the reflection of electromagnetic waves, which was attributed to the “absorb-reflect-reabsorb” process for the incident electromagnetic waves. This work may provide a simple and effective approach to achieve new EMI shielding materials, especially for absorption-dominated EMI shielding.

AbstractLightweight, flexibility, and low thickness are urgent requirements for next-generation high-performance electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding materials for catering to the demand for smart and wearable electronic devices. Although several efforts have focused on constructing porous and flexible conductive films or aerogels, few studies have achieved a balance in terms of density, thickness, flexibility, and EMI shielding effectiveness (SE). Herein, an ultrathin, lightweight, and flexible carbon nanotube (CNT) buckypaper enhanced using MXenes (Ti3C2Tx) for high-performance EMI shielding is synthesized through a facile electrophoretic deposition process. The obtained Ti3C2Tx@CNT hybrid buckypaper exhibits an outstanding EMI SE of 60.5 dB in the X-band at 100 μm. The hybrid buckypaper with an MXene content of 49.4 wt% exhibits an EMI SE of 50.4 dB in the X-band with a thickness of only 15 μm, which is 105% higher than that of pristine CNT buckypaper. Furthermore, an average specific SE value of 5.7 × 104 dB cm2 g−1 is exhibited in the 5-μm hybrid buckypaper. Thus, this assembly process proves promising for the construction of ultrathin, flexible, and high-performance EMI shielding films for application in electronic devices and wireless communications.

Lightweight carbon foams with excellent electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding performance were prepared by carbonization process, using isocyanate-based polyimide foams as carbon precursors. The influence of carbonization temperature and graphene-doping on the morphological, electrical and EMI shielding effectiveness (SE) of corresponding carbon foams was studied in detail. Results showed that the addition of graphene was beneficial to the improvement of electrical conductivity and EMI shielding performance of carbon foams. The electrical conductivity of carbon foams increased with the carbonization temperature which was related to the increase of graphitization degree. Collapse of foam cells was observed at higher carbonization temperatures, which was detrimental to the overall EMI SE. The optimal carbonization temperature was found at 1100 °C and the carbon foams obtained from 0.5 wt% graphene-doped foams exhibited a specific EMI SE of 2886 dB/(g/cm3), which shows potential applications in fields such as aerospace, aeronautics and electronics.

As the portable device hardware has been increasing at a noticeable rate, ultrathin flexible materials with the combination of high thermal conductivity and excellent electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding performance are urgently needed. Here, we fabricated ethylene propylene diene monomer rubber with different loading graphene nanoplatelets (GnPs/EPDM) by a cost-efficient approach, which combines mixing, ultrasonication and compression. Further investigation demonstrates that the 8[Formula: see text]wt.% GnPs/EPDM with only 0.3[Formula: see text]mm in thickness shows excellent electrical conductivity (28.3[Formula: see text]S/m), thermal conductivity (0.79[Formula: see text]W/m[Formula: see text]K) and good mechanical properties. Besides, the 8[Formula: see text]wt.% GnPs/EPDM exhibits an EMI shielding effectiveness (SE) up to 33[Formula: see text]dB in the X-band (8.2–12.4[Formula: see text]GHz) and 35[Formula: see text]dB in the Ku-band (12.4–18[Formula: see text]GHz), superior to most of the reported rubber matrix. Additionally, the GnPs/EPDM shows excellent flexibility and stability with 95% and 94% retention of EMI SE even after repeated bending for 5000 times and corrosion (under 5% NaCl environment) for a week. Our flexible EMI shielding material will benefit the fast-growing next-generation commercial portable flexible electrons.

AbstractElectromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding materials have received considerable attention in recent years. The EMI shielding effectiveness (SE) of materials depends on not only their composition but also their microstructures. Among various microstructure prototypes, porous structures provide the advantages of low density and high terahertz wave absorption. In this study, by using carbonised wood (CW) as a template, 1-mm-thick MAX@CW composites (Ti2AlC@CW, V2AlC@CW, and Cr2AlC@CW) with a porous structure were fabricated through the molten salt method. The MAX@CW composites led to the formation of a conductive network and multilayer interface, which resulted in improved EMI SE. The average EMI SE values of the three MAX@CW composites were > 45 dB in the frequency of 0.6–1.6 THz. Among the composites, V2AlC@CW exhibited the highest average EMI SE of 55 dB.

Insitu polymerization of aniline was carried out in the presence of stannous oxide (SnO) to synthesize Polyaniline (PAni)/SnO composites by chemical oxidation method. The surface morphology of the composites were studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM).The electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding properties of the composites were investigated for different wt % of SnO (10,20,30,40 and 50 wt%) in PAni. The EMI measurements were carried out in the frequency range from 8.2 to 12.4 GHz (X-band), which is relevant for practical applications. EMI shielding effectiveness (EMI SE), microwave absorption and reflection, the influence of SnO concentration in PAni on EMI SE of the composites are reported. The composites exhibit EMI SE value of -18 to -23 dB. The absorption dominated EMI SE of these composites indicates the potential applications of these materials for microwave attenuation in the X-band.

In this study, we reported a laminated CNTs/Mg composite fabricated by spray-deposition and subsequent hot-press sintering, which realized simultaneous enhancement effects on strength and electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding effectiveness (SE) by the introduced CNTs and CNT induced laminated ‘Mg-CNT-Mg’ structure. It was found that the CNTs/Mg composite with 0.5 wt.% CNTs not only exhibited excellent strength-toughness combination but also achieved a high EMI SE of 58 dB. The CNTs increased the strength of the composites mainly by the thermal expansion mismatch strengthening and blocking dislocation movements. As for toughness enhancement, CNTs induced laminated structure redistributes the local strain effectively and alleviates the strain localization during the deformation process. Moreover, it could also hinder the crack propagation and cause crack deflection, which resulted in an increment of the required energy for the failure of CNTs/Mg composites. Surprisingly, because of the laminated structure induced by introducing CNTs, the composite also exhibited an outperforming EMI SE in the X band (8.2–12.4 GHz). The strong interactions between the laminated ‘Mg-CNT-Mg’ structure and the incident electromagnetic waves are responsible for the increased absorption of the electromagnetic radiation. The lightweight CNTs/Mg composite with outstanding mechanical properties and simultaneously increased EMI performance could be employed as shell materials for electronic packaging components or electromagnetic absorbers.

In this study lightweight carbon fiber and multiwalled carbon nanotubes filled hybrid nanocomposite was fabricated for electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding in spacecraft. Electrical conductivity was conducted to assess the affect of MWCNT addition on composite. EMI shielding effectiveness (SE) was tested in the frequency range of 1-18 GHz. Comparison of SE was also made with AA6061-T6 sheet. Dispersion of nanotubes in the matrix was examined through microscopy. Results indicated that the conductivity was increased with increasing MWCNTs up to 0.25 wt%. Higher loading level of MWCNTs has resulted in decrease in conductivity due to agglomeration in cured samples. Hybrid nanocomposite exhibited improved SE than AA6061-T6 in 1-8 GHz frequency range. Best SE and electrical conductivity was witnessed in 0.25 wt% MWCNT sample. EMI SE in range of-20 dB to-40 dB can be easily achieved in our developed material.

Abstract Lightweight microcellular polyurethane (TPU)/carbon nanotubes (CNTs)/ nickel-coated CNTs (Ni@CNTs)/polymerizable ionic liquid copolymer (PIL) composite foams are prepared by non-solvent induced phase separation (NIPS). CNTs and Ni@CNTs modified by PIL provide more heterogeneous nucleation sites and inhibit the aggregation and combination of microcellular structure. Compared with TPU/CNTs, the TPU/CNTs/PIL and TPU/CNTs/Ni@CNTs/PIL composite foams with smaller microcellular structures have a high electromagnetic interference shielding effectiveness (EMI SE). The evaporate time regulates the microcellular structure, improves the conductive network of composite foams and reduces the microcellular size, which strengthens the multiple reflections of electromagnetic wave. The TPU/10CNTs/10Ni@CNTs/PIL foam exhibits slightly higher SE values (69.9 dB) compared with TPU/20CNTs/PIL foam (53.3 dB). The highest specific EMI SE of TPU/20CNTs/PIL and TPU/10CNTs/10Ni@CNTs/PIL reaches up to 187.2 and 211.5 dB/(g cm−3), respectively. The polarization losses caused by interfacial polarization between TPU substrates and conductive fillers, conduction loss caused by conductive network of fillers and magnetic loss caused by Ni@CNT synergistically attenuate the microwave energy.

Highlights The cationic waterborne polyurethanes microspheres with Diels-Alder bonds were synthesized for the first time. The electrostatic attraction not only endows the composite with segregated structure to gain high electromagnetic-interference shielding effectiveness, but also greatly enhances mechanical properties. Efficient healing property was realized under heating environment. Abstract It is still challenging for conductive polymer composite-based electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding materials to achieve long-term stability while maintaining high EMI shielding effectiveness (EMI SE), especially undergoing external mechanical stimuli, such as scratches or large deformations. Herein, an electrostatic assembly strategy is adopted to design a healable and segregated carbon nanotube (CNT)/graphene oxide (GO)/polyurethane (PU) composite with excellent and reliable EMI SE, even bearing complex mechanical condition. The negatively charged CNT/GO hybrid is facilely adsorbed on the surface of positively charged PU microsphere to motivate formation of segregated conductive networks in CNT/GO/PU composite, establishing a high EMI SE of 52.7 dB at only 10 wt% CNT/GO loading. The Diels–Alder bonds in PU microsphere endow the CNT/GO/PU composite suffering three cutting/healing cycles with EMI SE retention up to 90%. Additionally, the electrostatic attraction between CNT/GO hybrid and PU microsphere helps to strong interfacial bonding in the composite, resulting in high tensile strength of 43.1 MPa and elongation at break of 626%. The healing efficiency of elongation at break achieves 95% when the composite endured three cutting/healing cycles. This work demonstrates a novel strategy for developing segregated EMI shielding composite with healable features and excellent mechanical performance and shows great potential in the durable and high precision electrical instruments.
