Lightweight, Flexible Cellulose-Derived Carbon Aerogel@Reduced Graphene Oxide/PDMS Composites with Outstanding EMI Shielding Performances and Excellent Thermal Conductivities.

ABSTRACT: In order to ensure the operational reliability and information security of sophisticated electronic components and to protect human health, efficient electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding materials are required to attenuate electromagnetic wave energy. In this work, the cellulose solution is obtained by dissolving cotton through hydrogen bond driving self-assembly using sodium hydroxide (NaOH)/urea solution, and cellulose aerogels (CA) are prepared by gelation and freeze-drying. Then, the cellulose carbon aerogel@reduced graphene oxide aerogels (CCA@rGO) are prepared by vacuum impregnation, freeze-drying followed by thermal annealing, and finally, the CCA@rGO/polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) EMI shielding composites are prepared by backfilling with PDMS. Owing to skin-core structure of CCA@rGO, the complete three-dimensional (3D) double-layer conductive network can be successfully constructed. When the loading of CCA@rGO is 3.05 wt%, CCA@rGO/PDMS EMI shielding composites have an excellent EMI shielding effectiveness (EMI SE) of 51 dB, which is 3.9 times higher than that of the co-blended CCA/rGO/PDMS EMI shielding composites (13 dB) with the same loading of fillers. At this time, the CCA@rGO/PDMS EMI shielding composites have excellent thermal stability (T_HRI of 178.3 °C) and good thermal conductivity coefficient (λ of 0.65 W m^-1 K^-1). Excellent comprehensive performance makes CCA@rGO/PDMS EMI shielding composites great prospect for applications in lightweight, flexible EMI shielding composites.

Sustainable Lightweight Biochar-Based Composites with Electromagnetic Shielding Properties.

Project description:Global warming has prompted a search for new materials that capture and sink carbon dioxide (CO2). Biochar is a derivative of biomass pyrolysis and a carbon sink mainly used to improve crop production. This work explores the underlying mechanism behind biochar's electric conductivity using a wide range of feedstocks and its combination with a binder (gypsum). This gypsum-biochar composite exhibits decreased density and flexural moduli with increasing biochar content, particularly after 20% w/w. Gypsum-biochar drywall-like composite prototypes display increasing shielding efficiency mostly in the microwave range as a function of biochar content, differing from other conventional metal (copper) and synthetic carbon-based materials. This narrow range of electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding is attributed to natural alignment (isotropy) of the carbon ultrastructure (e.g., lignin) induced by heat and intrinsic interconnectivity in addition to traditional phenomena such as dissipation of surface currents and polarization in the electric field. These biomass-derived products could be used as sustainable lightweight materials in a future bio-based economy.

Highly Conductive PDMS Composite Mechanically Enhanced with 3D-Graphene Network for High-Performance EMI Shielding Application.

Project description:A highly conductive three-dimensional (3D) graphene network (GN) was fabricated by chemical vapor deposition on a 3D nickel fiber network and subsequent etching process. Then a lightweight and flexible polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS)/GN composite was prepared by a vacuum infiltration method by using the graphene network as a template. The composite showed the superior electrical conductivity of 6100 S/m even at a very low loading level of graphene (1.2 wt %). As a result, an outstanding electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding effectiveness (SE) of around 40 and 90 dB can be achieved in the X-band at thicknesses of 0.25 and 0.75 mm, respectively, which are much higher than most of the conductive polymers filled with carbon. The 3D graphene network can also act as a mechanical enhancer for PDMS. With a loading level of 1.2 wt %, the composite shows a significant increase by 256% in tensile strength.

Lightweight MWCNT/hollow mesoporous carbon/WPU composite material with excellent electromagnetic shielding performance.

Project description:With the rapid increase of intelligent communication equipment, electromagnetic pollution is becoming more and more serious, and the research and application of high-performance electromagnetic shielding materials have attracted great attention from the academic and engineering circles. Traditional metal-based electromagnetic shielding materials have high reflection loss, high density, and are difficult to process. Polymer-based materials with carbon materials as fillers have the advantages of flexibility, light weight, corrosion resistance and low processing costs. They have become the most important materials in the field of electromagnetic shielding in recent years. However, the conductivity of conductive polymer materials is not high. Therefore, improving the electromagnetic shielding performance and the proportion of absorption loss under low density conditions have become key issues for polymer-based electromagnetic shielding materials. MWCNT/MCHMs/WPU composites were prepared by a solution mixing method, with 20 wt%, 40 wt%, 60 wt% MWCNTs and 40 wt% MWCNT/10 wt% MCHMs as fillers. By comparing the effects of different MWCNT content and MCHMs on the dielectric properties, electromagnetic shielding properties and mechanical properties of the MWCNT/MCHMs/WPU composites, the relationship between the structure and properties of the composites has been explored. The 0.6 mm WPU/60 wt% MWCNT composite has an electrical conductivity of 95.4 S m-1 and an electromagnetic shielding effectiveness of 40 dB in the X band. Adding 10 wt% MCHMs to the WPU/40 wt% MWCNT composite material can significantly improve the composite. The δ of the material increased from 51.2 S m-1 to 55.4 S m-1, and the SE increased from 30 dB to 33 dB. The research results show that the increase in MWCNT content and MCHMs is beneficial to improving the electrical conductivity and electromagnetic shielding performance of the composite materials.

Project description:MXenes, carbon nanotubes, and nanoparticles are attractive candidates for electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding. The composites were prepared through a filtration technique and spray coating process. The functionalization of non-woven carbon fabric is an attractive strategy. The prepared composite was characterized using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), and Raman spectroscopy. The MXene-oxidized carbon nanotube-sodium dodecyl sulfate composite (MXCS) exhibited 50.5 dB (99.999%), and the whole nanoparticle-based composite blocked 99.99% of the electromagnetic radiation. The functionalization increased the shielding by 15.4%. The composite possessed good thermal stability, and the maximum electric conductivity achieved was 12.5 Scm-1. Thus, the composite shows excellent potential applications towards the areas such as aeronautics, mobile phones, radars, and military.

High Value Utilization of Waste Wood toward Porous and Lightweight Carbon Monolith with EMI Shielding, Heat Insulation and Mechanical Properties.

Project description:With the increasing pollution of electromagnetic (EM) radiation, it is necessary to develop low-cost, renewable electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding materials. Herein, wood-derived carbon (WC) materials for EMI shielding are prepared by one-step carbonization of renewable wood. With the increase in carbonization temperature, the conductivity and EMI performance of WC increase gradually. At the same carbonization temperature, the denser WC has better conductivity and higher EMI performance. In addition, due to the layered superimposed conductive channel structure, the WC in the vertical-section shows better EMI shielding performance than that in the cross-section. After excluding the influence of thickness and density, the specific EMI shielding effectiveness (SSE/t) value can be calculated to further optimize tree species. We further discuss the mechanism of the influence of the microstructure of WC on its EMI shielding properties. In addition, the lightweight WC EMI material also has good hydrophobicity and heat insulation properties, as well as good mechanical properties.

Decorating MOF-Derived Nanoporous Co/C in Chain-Like Polypyrrole (PPy) Aerogel: A Lightweight Material with Excellent Electromagnetic Absorption.

Project description:To clear away the harmful effects of the increment of electromagnetic pollution, high performance absorbers with appropriate impedance matching and strong attenuation capacity are strongly desired. In this study, a chain-like PPy aerogel decorated with MOF-derived nanoporous Co/C (Co/C@PPy) has been successfully prepared by a self-assembled polymerization method. With a filler loading ratio of 10 wt %, the composite of Co/C@PPy could achieve a promising electromagnetic absorption performance both in intensity and bandwidth. An optimal reflection loss value of −44.76 dB is achieved, and the effective bandwidth (reflection loss lower than −10 dB) is as large as 6.56 GHz. Furthermore, a composite only loaded with 5 wt % Co/C@PPy also achieves an effective bandwidth of 5.20 GHz, which is even better than numerous reported electromagnetic absorption (EA) materials. The result reveals that the as-fabricated Co/C@PPy—with high absorption intensity, broad bandwidth, and light weight properties—can be utilized as a competitive absorber.

Efficient electromagnetic interference shielding of lightweight carbon nanotube/polyethylene composites <i>via</i> compression molding plus salt-leaching.

Project description:Carbon nanotube/high density polyethylene (CNT/HDPE) foam composites with high electrical conductivity and electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding performance were developed by means of compression molding plus salt-leaching. The uniform porous structure and interconnected CNT networks throughout the cell backbones endowed the as-prepared foam composites with a significantly lower electrical percolation threshold (0.22 vol%) than that of the solid composites (0.84 vol%). Owing to the multiple reflections and scattering between the cell-matrix interfaces, the foam composites presented a superior specific EMI shielding effectiveness (EMI SE) of 104.3 dB cm3 g-1, 2.2 times higher than that of their solid counterpart. Besides this, the pore sizes of the CNT/HDPE foam composites could be easily tuned by controlling the particle size of the porogen. Also, the electrical conductivity and specific EMI SE increased with an increase in the cell diameter, which was attributed to the formation of a more perfect conductive network in the cell backbones. Our approach provides a novel idea for fabricating new lightweight EMI shielding materials, especially for aircraft and spacecraft applications.

Improving the EMI shielding of graphene oxide (GNO)-coated glass-fiber-GNO-MA-grafted polypropylene (PP) composites and nylon 1D-2D nanocomposite foams.

Project description:The proliferation of the latest electronic gadgets and wireless communication devices can trigger electromagnetic interference (EMI), which has a detrimental impact on electronic devices and humans. Efficient EMI shielding materials are required for EMI-SE and they should be durable in external environments, lightweight, and cost-effective. GNO-coated glass-fiber-GNO-maleic anhydride-grafted polypropylene (MAPP) composite and carbon fiber-reinforced nylon 1D-2D nanocomposite foam were successfully prepared via a cost-effective thermal process. The composites were characterized using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Raman spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The PP and nylon-based composites with ∼13% filler showed maximum electrical conductivity (EC) of 878 mS cm-1 and 1381 mS cm-1, respectively. The GNO-coated glass-fiber-GNO-MAPP foam displays a maximum EMI-SE of 120.6 dB, while the nylon graphene-carbon nanotube-metal nanoplatelet foam exhibits a maximum EMI-SE of 139.1 dB in the X-band region. The GFCFFeGMAPP composite possesses a minimum thickness of 2.56 mm and blocks most incoming radiation. These are some of the highest EMI-SE values reported so far for glass fiber and nylon-based composites, and the nylon-based composite showed excellent properties compared to the glass fiber-based composite. Thus, we believe that the developed composites can be used in a wide range of real applications, such as in military vehicles, aviation, automobiles, and the packaging of electronic circuits.

Project description:A series of multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) coated carbon fabrics was fabricated using a facile dip coating process, and their performance in electrical conductivity, thermal stability, tensile strength, electromagnetic interference (EMI) and shielding effectiveness (SE) was investigated. A solution of MWCNT oxide and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) in water was used in the coating process. MWCNTs were observed to coat the surfaces of carbon fibers and to fill the pores in the carbon fabric. Electrical conductivity of the composites was 16.42 S cm?1. An EMI shielding effectiveness of 37 dB at 2 GHz was achieved with a single layer of C/C composites, whereas the double layers resulted in 68 dB EMI SE at 2.7 GHz. Fabricated composites had a specific SE of 486.54 dB cm3 g?1 and an absolute SE of approximately 35,000 dB cm2 g?1. According to the above results, MWCNT coated C/C composites have the potential to be used in advanced shielding applications such as aerospace and auto mobile electronic devices.

EMI Shielding Nanocomposite Laminates with High Temperature Resistance, Hydrophobicity and Anticorrosion Properties.

Project description:High-performance multifunctional EMI shielding composite fabricated by low-cost method is increasingly required. Herein, novel EMI shielding nanocomposite laminates, consisting of composite prepreg of carbon fiber/epoxy resin/carbon nanotube film, were manufactured by facile electric heating of carbon nanotube film. The results indicated that composite with excellent specific shielding effectiveness of 0.07 dB/μm, 47 dB cm3/g and metamaterial properties can be designed by composite prepreg, and the primary shielding mechanism of it was reflection loss, along with interface polarization loss and conductive loss, which was superior to lots of shielding materials including carbon nanotube-based, carbon black-based, carbon nanofiber-based and graphene-based materials reported previously. Meanwhile, highly required excellent properties, including the thermostability with initial decomposition temperature up to 300 °C, hydrophobicity over contact angle of 115°, corrosion resistance of the composite with metal-free modification, and function as structural laminate compared with previous studies were demonstrated, which suggested tremendous potentials of the multifunctional EMI shielding composites in harsh environment.
