Carbon black distribution in different phases of blends affects the percolation threshold and electrical properties and electromagnetic interferences (EMIs) shielding effectiveness to a great extent. We addressed the challenge of developing a light weight and highly flexible superior EMI shielding material by combining ethylene methyl acrylate (EMA) and ethylene octane copolymer (EOC) with conductive carbon black. The selective distribution of filler particle in the EMA phase facilitates the way for double percolation phenomenon which signifies higher electrical conductivity properties. This percolated filler network development is revealed from the field emission scanning electron microscopy and TEM analysis. This newly developed conductive blend demonstrates superior EMI shielding efficiency of −31.4 dB together with promising mechanical and thermal properties. POLYM.

The recent development in telecommunication technology has led electromagnetic interference (EMI) to a serious threat to both electronic devices and living beings. In this work, we designed a highly efficient EMI shielding material by taking advantage of both carbonaceous hybrid filler and double percolation phenomenon. Here, a flexible, lightweight microwave absorbing conductive polymer composite was fabricated by employing poly (ethylene‐co‐methyl acrylate) and ethylene octene copolymer (EMA/EOC) binary blend as the matrix and multiwall carbon nanotube carbon black (MWCNT/CB) hybrid filler as the conductive moiety. We investigated the effect of MWCNT content in the hybrid composite on mechanical, thermomechanical, electrical, and shielding efficiency. A total EMI shielding efficiency of −37.4 dB in the X band region was attained with 20 wt% hybrid filler containing 50 wt% MWCNT along with promising mechanical properties.

Harmful electromagnetic (EM) interference (EMI) to living beings and various sensitive instruments by EM radiations from electronic and electrical gadgets and mobile towers is increasing rapidly. It inflicts illness, and presumably cancerous growth in human cells. EMI is minimized by wrapping the receiver and/or the emitter gaplessly by an efficient EM shielding sheet. Compared to the widely used and classical metallic shields, 2nd generation polymer composite EMI shields are lighter and more flexible. Conventional polymer composites use conducting polymers and metallic/carbon powders that have conducting electrons to reflect EM waves away. A polymeric binder, curing overnight to a soft and flexible sheet, has presently been selected for making the polymeric composites. We test EM shielding by certain non‐metallic composites. We review results for composites with fine metallic fibers (copper and brass turnings, available as waste from mechanical workshops) or conducting forms of cadmium oxide or ferroelectric materials (PbNb2O6 [o‐PN] & BaTiO3 [BT]) or their mixtures (52 samples). Small pieces of these cloth‐like polymeric sheets have been characterized in a Vector Network Analyzer (VNA), by measuring input power (Pin), the reflected power (Prefl), and the transmitted power (Pout), over five frequency bands in 700 MHz to 40 GHz range to find Shielding Effectiveness (SE) = 10 log (Pout/Pin) and Reflection Effectiveness = 10 log (Prefl/Pin). Success of o‐PN, BT, conducting (fired) Cd‐O, metallic turnings and their combinations has been discussed, highlighting some new observations. Composites, developed in this work, include EMI Shielding materials and potential Radar Absorption Materials.
