The growth in the application of electronic devices across a broad spectrum of military, industrial, commercial and consumer sectors has created a new form of pollution known as noise or radio frequency interference (RFI) or electromagnetic radiation or electromagnetic interference (EMI) that can cause interference or malfunctioning of equipment. Therefore, there is a greater need for the effective shielding of components from its adverse effects. This review surveys the shielding materials like metals, conducting plastics and conducting polymers for the control of electromagnetic radiations.
This article reports the synthesis, characterization and supercapacitative properties of dodecyl benzenesulphonic acid (DBSA) doped polyaniline(PAni) and its magnetite composites. The synthesized composites are characterized by Uv-Vis, FT-IR, XRD, SEM, electrochemical methods and are evaluated as electrode material for supercapacitor applications. The composites are partially soluble in methanol and are highly dispersible in water. The pristine polyaniline (PAni-DBSA)showed a specific capacitance of 160 F/g, whereas its magnetite(3.8 wt %) composite (C1) and the symmetrical capacitor derived from C1 showed enhanced capacitance of 228 F/g and 180 F/g respectively, at 1 mA/cm 2 .
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
