In this paper we prepared electroless Ni-plated wood veneers using two Pa activation methods. One is the traditional Pa colloid activation and the other uses Pa2+ions. SEM-EDS results indicated that the coatings were continuous, uniform and compact with a P content of lower than 4 wt.%. XRD analysis showed that the coatings were crystalline, which was related to the low P content. The plated wood veneers exhibit good electro-conductivity with surface resistivity of lower than 0.3 Ω cm-2and higher electromagnetic shielding effectiveness of over 60 dB in frequencies from 10 MHz to 1.5 GHz.

Polypyrrole was deposited on polyester yarns by vapour phase polymerization technique. Ferric chloride was used as an initiator. In order to determine the effect of the initiator concentration on polymerization process, four different initiator concentrations (0.2, 0.4, 0.6 and 0.8 mol/l) were used. The effect of the initiator in terms of tensile properties, electrical resistivities and morphological properties of the yarns was investigated. The polypyrrole deposited polyester yarns were then weaved in a handloom to form fabric for the investigation of surface resistivity and electromagnetic shielding effectiveness. Scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive spectroscopy and Fourier transform infrared analyses illustrated that polypyrrole has penetrated into the yarn structure and the highest polypyrrole deposition was obtained at the initiator concentration of 0.6 mol/l. Also, the highest electromagnetic shielding effectiveness value and the lowest surface resistivity were obtained at this concentration.

This study uses 0.08mm copper wire and nickel-coated copper wire as the core and 75 D far infrared filament as the wrapped material to manufacture Cu/FIR-PET wrapped yarn, Ni-Cu/FIR-PET wrapped yarn and Ni-Cu/Cu/FIR-PET wrapped yarn. The three optimum metallic/FIR-PET wrapped yarns are then weaving into Cu/FIR-PET woven fabrics, Ni-Cu/FIR-PET woven fabrics and Ni-Cu/Cu/FIR-PET woven fabrics. Tensile property of metallic/FIR-PET wrapped yarns, electrical resistance of metallic/FIR-PET wrapped yarns, surface resistivity of metallic/FIR-PET woven fabrics and electromagnetic shielding effectiveness of metallic/FIR-PET woven fabric are discussed. According to the results, the optimum tenacity and elongation are chosen as 7 turns/ cm, electrical resistance of Ni-Cu/Cu/FIR-PET wrapped presents the best value, Cu/FIR-PET woven fabric has the lowest surface resistivity and Ni-Cu/Cu/FIR-PET woven fabric shows the best EMSE at 37.61 dB when the laminating-layer number is double layer and laminating at 90 ̊. In this study, three kinds of metallic/FIR-PET woven fabrics are successfully manufactured and looking forward to applying on industrial domains.

Abstract The changes of properties of wood-based Cu-Ni composites were studied via electroless Cu and Ni on wood surface to obtain Cu-Ni multilayer composites with excellent properties. The surface and interface morphology of the composite coatings were investigated via laser confocal microscopy and scanning electron microscope (SEM). The crystal structure was characterized by XRD. The hydrophobic properties of the composite coatings were tested via contact angle meter. The surface conductivity of composites was tested via four-probe. The results showed that the electrical conductivity of wood-based Cu-Ni composites was 2370.76 S/cm. The surface roughness was 9.99 μm and the thickness of uniform coating reached 157 μm via one time electroless Ni deposition and two times electroless Cu deposition. XRD analysis showed that the wood surface was uniformly covered with metal coating. The metal Cu and Ni were closely nested together to form a dense composite layer, and the composite material was light in weight. When the electroless Ni was 55 min, the contact angle could reach 123°, indicating that had best hydrophobicity. The average electromagnetic shielding effectiveness (EMSE) of Cu and Ni wood-based composites can reach 93.8 dB at L band ranging from 0.3×103 to 3.0×103 MHz) with a low thickness (157 μm), verified the multilayer composite materials can block over 99.99% of incident EM waves.

In this study, it was aimed to determine electromagnetic shielding effectiveness, antibacterial activity, surface resistivityand bending rigidity properties of 1×1 rib knitted fabrics. For this purpose, copper (Cu), stainless steel (SS) and silver(Ag) wires were commingled with two nylon filaments to produce metal composite yarns. 1×1 rib fabrics were producedby these composite yarns. Electromagnetic shielding effectiveness (EMSE), antibacterial activity, surface resistivity andbending rigidity of the composite knits were measured. Electromagnetic shielding measurements of samples wereconducted between 1.0–5.0 GHz frequency. Antibacterial activity test was applied according to AATCC 100 standardagainst K. pneumoniae and S. aureus bacteria. Results showed that knitted fabrics generally have lower SE values than10 dB at wale direction. The double layer samples provide higher EMSE than single layer samples for all metal types.Maximum EMSE value was obtained as 57.12 dB. The use of metal wire significantly reduced surface resistivity ofknitted fabrics. Copper composite knitted fabrics showed 99 % antibacterial activity against both bacterial species. Whencompared to the control sample, the use of metal wire significantly increased the rigidity of the samples.

To solve electromagnetic interference of electronic devices and health issues by the expansion of the electronic industry and the extensive use of electronic equipment, flexible and stretchable conductive elastic textiles are beneficial. This study prepared conductive Ni/polyaniline (PANi)/polytrimethylene-terephthalate (PTT) composite fabric by in situ chemical polymerization and electroless nickel plating. Their direct current electrical resistance and the shielding efficiency energy were tested. Furthermore, the effect of electroless plating conditions was investigated on surface resistivity and electromagnetic shielding effectiveness (EMSE) of the composite fabric, and the correlation between electrical resistivity and EMSE was explored. The results show that the shielding efficiency energy of Ni/PANi/PTT composite fabric optimized can reach more than 40 dB and at a given frequency it has an inverse parabolic relation with the electroless plating conditions. In addition, when the electroless plating conditions is the determinant, the SE has little change in the electromagnetic wave frequency, especially in the frequency range of 600 MHz or more. It is concluded that the EMSE of the Ni/PANi/PTT conductive fabrics could be tailored by modifying the chemical reagent contents in the electroless plating solution.
