The co-precipitation and in situ modified Hummers’ method was used to synthesize Nickel Spinal Ferrites (NiFe) nanoparticles and NiFe coated with Thermally Reduced Graphene Oxide (TRGO) (NiFe-TRGO) nanoparticles, respectively. By using polyvinyl chloride (PVC), tetrahydrofuran (THF), and NiFe-TRGO, the nanocomposite film was synthesized using the solution casting technique with a thickness of 0.12–0.13 mm. Improved electromagnetic interference shielding efficiency was obtained in the 0.1–20 GHz frequency range. The initial assessment was done through XRD for the confirmation of the successful fabrication of nanoparticles and DC conductivity. The microstructure was analyzed with scanning electron microscopy. The EMI shielding was observed by incorporating a filler amount varying from 5 wt.% to 40 wt.% in three different frequency regions: microwave region (0.1 to 20 GHz), near-infrared (NIR) (700–2500 nm), and ultraviolet (UV) (200–400 nm). A maximum attenuation of 65 dB was observed with a 40% concentration of NiFe-TRGO in nanocomposite film.

A multi-step reduction process was developed to produce reduced graphene oxide (rGO) paper for electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding. First step reduction was achieved by hydroiodic acid to remove most of the oxygen-containing functional groups, and sodium borohydride was used in the second step reduction to reduce carbonyl group which is the most difficult functional group to remove. In the last step reduction, hydroiodic acid was used as reducing agent again to remove the remaining oxygen-containing functional groups. The results show that this method can greatly improve the conductivity and EMI shielding performance of rGO paper. The resulting rGO paper with a C/O ratio of 19.38 and a thickness of 9.1[Formula: see text][Formula: see text]m exhibited high conductivity of 1084[Formula: see text]S/cm and excellent average EMI shielding efficiency of 45.84[Formula: see text]dB in the X-band, better than that reduction by other chemical methods.

Herein, we presented electromagnetic interference shielding characteristics of NiFe2O4 nanoparticles—in-situ thermally-reduced graphene oxide (RGO)—polypropylene nanocomposites with the variation of reduced graphene oxide content. The structural, morphological, magnetic, and electromagnetic parameters and mechanical characteristics of fabricated nanocomposites were investigated and studied in detail. The controllable composition of NiFe2O4-RGO-Polypropylene nanocomposites exhibited electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding effectiveness (SE) with a value of 29.4 dB at a thickness of 2 mm. The enhanced EMI shielding properties of nanocomposites with the increase of RGO content could be assigned to enhanced attenuation ability, high conductivity, dipole and interfacial polarization, eddy current loss, and natural resonance. The fabricated lightweight NiFe2O4-RGO-Polypropylene nanocomposites have potential as a high performance electromagnetic interference shielding nanocomposite.

Electronic systems and telecommunication devices based on low-power microwaves, ranging from 2 to 40 GHz, have massively developed in the last decades. Their extensive use has contributed to the emergence of diverse electromagnetic interference (EMI) phenomena. Consequently, EMI shielding has become a ubiquitous necessity and, in certain countries, a legal requirement. Broadband absorption is considered the only convincing EMI shielding solution when the complete disappearance of the unwanted microwave is required. In this study, a new type of microwave absorber materials (MAMs) based on reduced graphene oxide (rGO) decorated with zero-valent Fe@γ-Fe2O3 and Fe/Co/Ni carbon-protected alloy nanoparticles (NPs) were synthesized using the Pechini sol-gel method. Synthetic parameters were varied to determine their influence on the deposited NPs size and spatial distribution. The deposited superparamagnetic nanoparticles were found to induce a ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) absorption process in all cases. Furthermore, a direct relationship between the nanocomposites’ natural FMR frequency and their composition-dependent saturation magnetization (Ms) was established. Finally, the microwave absorption efficiency (0.4 MHz to 20 GHz) of these new materials was found to range from 60% to 100%, depending on the nature of the metallic particles grafted onto rGO.

An effective electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding cyanate ester (CE) composite has been fabricated with a combination of graphene nanosheets (GNSs) and nickel ferrite (NiFe2O[Formula: see text] particles. NiFe2O4 particles were loaded on the reduced graphene oxide (RGO) to improve the dispersibility while the composites were synthesized via solution blending method. Scanning electron micrographs (SEM) showed good dispersion of GNSs and RGO–NiFe2O4 in CE. Electromagnetic properties and EMI shielding effectiveness (SE) of the nanocomposites were determined over X-bands (8.2–12.4[Formula: see text]GHz). It was observed that the EMI shielding performance of composites was improved by increasing the filler loading of composites and absorption was found to be the dominant shielding mechanism. The total EMI SE is almost reaching 50[Formula: see text]dB for samples with thicknesses of [Formula: see text]2.7[Formula: see text]mm, which suggests that the GNSs/RGO–NiFe2O4/CE could be good candidates for highly efficient EMI shielding materials in the whole X-band.

With the widespread use of electronic communication devices, ultra-thin, flexible, and high-performance electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding materials are widely used to prevent radiation pollution. Moreover, graphene-reinforced polymer-based nanocomposites have received increasing attention in the field of EMI shielding because of their excellent electrical properties. In this work, ultrathin and flexible nickel/reduced graphene oxide/cellulose nanofiber (Ni/RGO/CNFs) composite paper was fabricated using a step-by-step vacuum-assisted filtration method. The prepared composite paper with Ni/RGO to CNF ratio of 3:1 and a thickness of 105 µm attained the electrical conductivity of 1664 S/m and 22.6 dB of excellent electromagnetic shielding effectiveness (SE). In addition, the composite paper (2:1) exhibited great mechanical properties, leading to a high tensile strength of 78.4 MPa, 10.3% fracture strain, and no obvious fractures or cracks when the composite paper was folded. Therefore, the Ni/RGO/CNFs composite paper prepared in this study is an effective lightweight shielding material, especially in flexible electronics and wearable devices.
