Highlights
Highly flexible carbon ink-loaded polyester fabric/epoxy composites with outstanding mechanical durability and absorption-dominant EMI-shielding characteristics are fabricated.
The fracture toughness is ~ 38.5 MPa m
1/2
and electrical conductivity is maintained after 1000 bending cycles.
A superior electromagnetic interference

was observed in the X-band frequency with over 0.7 absorption coefficient, related to the hierarchical structures composed of macro-scaled voids from the polyester nonwoven fabric skeleton and nano-scaled networks from SWCNTs/rGO.
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.
