Three kinds of diamine monomers [ethylenediamine, butylenediamine and [Formula: see text]-phenylenediamine (PPD)] are adopted to cross-link carboxylated graphene (GP-COOH) sheets through filtration with a vacuum-assisted self-assembly technique, to fabricate highly conductive and excellent electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding films. XRD spectroscopy of cross-linked graphene films exhibits higher interlayer [Formula: see text]-spacing than the GP-COOH film. Results of FTIR and XPS spectroscopies indicate that diamine monomers are chemically grafted to the GP-COOH sheets through nucleophilic substitution reactions. Compared with that of the GP-COOH film, electrical conductivity of the PPD-cross-linked graphene film (GP-PPD) is remarkably improved from 69.7[Formula: see text]S/cm to 248.6[Formula: see text]S/cm, attributed to the decrease of junction contact resistance between adjacent graphene sheets, nitrogen doping effect and repair of defects. Higher nitrogen content and C/O ratio are observed in the XPS spectra of the GP-PPD film, leading to higher electrical conductivity than the remaining two amine-modified graphene films. The GP-PPD film also demonstrates excellent EMI shielding performance, with EMI shielding effectiveness (SE) of 26.5 dB at a thickness of 12.5[Formula: see text][Formula: see text]m, which is also better than the others. The outstanding EMI performance of the PPD-cross-linked graphene film is mainly ascribed to the enhanced electrical conductivity and modified electronic structure with nitrogen doping.

The conventional electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding materials are being gradually replaced by a new generation of supported conducting polymer composites (CPC) films due to their many advantages. This work presents a contribution on the effects of silane surface–modified flexible polypyrrole-silver nanocomposite films on the electromagnetic interference shielding effectiveness (EMI-SE). Thus, the UV-polymerization was used to in-situ deposit the PPy-Ag on the biaxial oriented polyethylene terephthalate (BOPET) flexible substrates whose surfaces were treated by 3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane (APTMS). X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) analyzes confirmed the APTMS grafting procedure. Structural, morphological, thermal, and electrical characteristics of the prepared films were correlated to the effect of substrate surface treatment. Thereafter, EMI-SE measurements of the elaborated films were carried out as per ASTM D4935 standard for a wide frequency band extending from 50 MHz to 18 GHz. The obtained results confirmed that the APTMS-treated BOPET film exhibit higher EMI shielding performance and better electrical characteristics compared to the untreated film. In fact, a 32% enhancement of EMI-SE was noted for the treated films compared to the untreated ones. Overall, these results put forward the role played by the surface treatment in strengthening the position of flexible PPy-Ag supported films as high-performance materials in electronic devices and electromagnetic interference shielding applications.

In this work, graphene aerogels (GAs) with three-dimensional interconnected networks were prepared by chemical reduction and self-assembly of graphene oxide sheets. After microwave treatment, obtained microwave reduced graphene aerogels (MRGAs) were used in the preparation of bismaleimide (BMI) composites. The results show that the microwave treatment significantly enhanced the quality of GAs, and the three-dimensional networks in the GAs were well retained. Moreover, the MRGAs were highly efficient in endowing BMI with high electrical conductivity and excellent electromagnetic interference shielding effectiveness (EMI SE). The conductivity of MRGA/BMI composites was 42–68% higher than that of GA/BMI composites. When the filler content is 1.6 wt.%, the EMI SE of MRGA/BMI composite was 32.3% higher than that of GA/BMI composite in the X band.
