A series of flexible graphene/carbon nanotubes (CNTs) hybrid papers were prepared by a facile impregnation method using cellulose papers as substrate. The impregnation cycles and sequence have a great impact on microstructure, electrical conductivity and electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding performance of graphene/CNTs hybrid papers. The results showed that the surface of cellulose papers was covered by graphene and CNTs, forming continuous conductive networks. The graphene/CNTs hybrid papers achieved a thickness range of 174.7-253.2 μm and areal density range of 26-35.7 g/m2, which presented a larger advantage than traditional EMI shielding materials. The electrical conductivity was increased from 0.33 S/cm to 7.63 S/cm with the increase of impregnation cycles from 1 to 5. Furthermore, graphene/CNTs hybrid papers delivered a high EMI shielding effectiveness of 22-32 dB in the frequency of 30-1500MHz, which was superior to single graphene or CNTs papers. Moreover, the electrical conductivity and EMI shielding effectiveness of as-prepared graphene/CNTs hybrid papers presented little decline after even bending 100 times at an angle of 180° owing to their excellent flexibility. The graphene/CNTs hybrid papers possess a huge application potential in electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) of electronic device.

Mediated by the PS-r-PMMA, the MWNTs were mostly localized at the interface and bridged the PMMA droplets. This strategy led to enhance EMI shielding effectiveness at 0.25 wt% MWNTs through multiple scattering from MWNT covered droplets.

A carbon nanotubes (CNTs) composite and its electromagnetic interference shielding effectiveness (SE) were investigated. Its absorptance, reflectance and shielding effectiveness (SE) were analysed. The CNTs composite has a shielding effectiveness (SE) of more than 25 dB (>99.68%) in frequency range from 30 MHz to 5 GHz. The testing results also demonstrate that the shielding mechanism of the CNTs composite is mainly EMI absorption of electromagnitic radiation. The high SE of the CNTs composite in the study is attributed to a high aspect ratio (>3000) and good conductive network of CNTs within the composite.

Abstract Lightweight materials with high electrical conductivity and hydrophobic mechanical properties are ideal materials for electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding. Herein, the conductive composites with great EMI shielding effectiveness (SE) were successfully obtained by introducing multi-walled carbon nanotube (CNT) and polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) based on the original structure of natural wood (NW). CNT@PDMS/NW composites were prepared via vacuum-pulse impregnation method and characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), scanning electron microscope (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns, hydrophobicity analysis, and EMI shielding performance. As demonstrated, CNT nanosheets were successfully inserted into wood matrices, and hydrogen bonding between CNT nanosheets and cellulose nanofibers induced the fabrication of CNT@PDMS/NW composites. CNT@PDMS/NW composites exhibited excellent EMI SE values of 25.2 dB at the X-band frequency.

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.

Electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding characteristics of carbon nanofiber-polystyrene composites were investigated in the frequency range of 12.4–18 GHz (Ku-band). It was observed that the shielding effectiveness of such composites was frequency independent, and increased with increasing carbon nanofiber loading within Ku-band. The experimental data exhibited that the shielding effectiveness of the polymer composite containing 20 wt% carbon nanofibers could reach more than 36 dB in the measured frequency region, indicating such composites can be applied to the potential EMI shielding materials. In addition, the results showed that the contribution of reflection to the EMI shielding effectiveness was much larger than that of absorption, implying the primary EMI shielding mechanism of such composites was reflection of electromagnetic radiation within Ku-band.

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.
