Graphene Infused Ecological Polymer Composites for Electromagnetic Interference Shielding and Heat Management Applications.

ABSTRACT: In the age of mobile electronics and increased aerospace interest, multifunctional materials such as the polymer composites reported here are interesting alternatives to conventional materials, offering reduced cost and size of an electrical device packaging. We report a detailed study of an ecological and dual-functional polymer composite for electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding and heat management applications. We studied a series of polylactic acid/graphene nanoplatelet composites with six graphene nanoplatelet loadings, up to 15 wt%, and three different flake lateral sizes (0.2, 5 and 25 μm). The multifunctionality of the composites is realized via high EMI shielding efficiency exceeding 40 dB per 1 mm thick sample and thermal conductivity of 1.72 W/mK at 15 wt% nanofiller loading. The EMI shielding efficiency measurements were conducted in the microwave range between 0.2 to 12 GHz, consisting of the highly relevant X-band (8-12 GHz). Additionally, we investigate the influence of the nanofiller lateral size on the studied physical properties to optimize the studied functionalities per given nanofiller loading.

Segregated poly(arylene sulfide sulfone)/graphene nanoplatelet composites for electromagnetic interference shielding prepared by the partial dissolution method.

Project description:Segregated conductive polymer composites have been proved to be outstanding electromagnetic interference shielding (EMI) materials at low filler loadings. However, due to the poor interfacial adhesion between the pure conductive filler layers and segregated polymer granules, the mechanical properties of the segregated composites are usually poor, which limit their application. Herein, a simple and effective approach, the partial dissolution method, has been proposed to fabricate segregated poly(arylene sulfide sulfone) (PASS)/graphene nanoplatelet (GNP) composites with superior EMI shielding effectiveness (SE) and high tensile strength. Morphology examinations revealed that the GNPs were restricted in the dissolved outer layer by the undissolved cores, and there was a strong interaction between the PASS/GNP layer and the pure PASS core. The resultant PASS/GNP composites showed excellent electrical conductivity (60.3 S m-1) and high EMI SE (41 dB) with only 5 wt% GNPs. More notably, the tensile strength of the PASS/GNPs prepared by partial dissolution reached 36.4 MPa, presenting 136% improvement compared to that of the conventional segregated composites prepared by mechanical mixing. The composites also exhibited high resistance to elevated temperatures and chemicals owing to the use of the special engineering polymer PASS as a matrix.

Constructing a Segregated Magnetic Graphene Network in Rubber Composites for Integrating Electromagnetic Interference Shielding Stability and Multi-Sensing Performance.

Project description:A flexible, wearable electronic device composed of magnetic iron oxide (Fe3O4)/reduced graphene oxide/natural rubber (MGNR) composites with a segregated network was prepared by electrostatic self-assembly, latex mixing, and in situ reduction. The segregated network offers the composites higher electrical conductivity and more reliable sensing properties. Moreover, the addi-tion of Fe3O4 provides the composites with better electromagnetic interference shielding effectiveness (EMI SE). The EMI shielding property of MGNR composites is more stable under tensile deformation and long-term cycling conditions and has a higher sensitivity to stretch strain compared with the same structure made from reduced graphene oxide/natural rubber (GNR) composites. The EMI SE value of MGNR composites reduces by no more than 2.9% under different tensile permanent deformation, cyclic stretching, and cyclic bending conditions, while that of GNR composites reduces by approximately 16% in the worst case. Additionally, the MGNR composites have a better sensing performance and can maintain stable signals, even in the case of cyclic stretching with a very small strain (0.05%). Furthermore, they can steadily monitor the changes in resistance signals in various human motions such as finger bending, wrist bending, speaking, smiling, and blinking, indicating that the MGNR composites can be used in future wearable electronic flexibility devices.

Graphene fibre film/polydimethylsiloxane nanocomposites for high-performance electromagnetic interference shielding.

Project description:Exploration of high-performance electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding materials has become a trend to address the increasing electromagnetic (EM) wave pollution environment. In this paper, oriented graphene fibre film (GFF)/polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) nanocomposites with one-ply unidirectional, two-ply cross-ply, and two-ply unidirectional configurations were prepared using wet-spinning and hot-pressing techniques in a two-step process. Due to the anisotropic electrical performance of GFF, the one-ply laminate exhibits EMI shielding anisotropy that is affected by fibre orientation relative to the electric field component in EM waves. The maximum shielding difference at 8.8 GHz is up to 32.0 dB between the fibre orientation parallel to and perpendicular to the electric field component. In addition, we found that adding a layer of GFF is an intuitive method to enhance the shielding efficiency (SE) of GFF/PDMS nanocomposites by providing more interfaces to enhance absorption losses. An optimal EMI shielding performance of a two-ply unidirectional laminate is observed with an SE value of 50.6 dB, which shields 99.999% of EM waves. The shielding mechanisms are also discussed and clarified from the results of both experimental and theoretical analyses by adjusting the GFF structural parameters, such as the fibre orientation, areal density, number of plies and stacking sequence.

Superflexible Interconnected Graphene Network Nanocomposites for High-Performance Electromagnetic Interference Shielding.

Project description:Graphene-enhanced polymer matrix nanocomposites are attracting ever increasing attention in the electromagnetic (EM) interference (EMI) shielding field because of their improved electrical property. Normally, the graphene is introduced into the matrix by chemical functionalization strategy. Unfortunately, the electrical conductivity of the nanocomposite is weak because the graphene nanosheets are not interconnected. As a result, the electromagnetic interference shielding effectiveness of the nanocomposite is not as excellent as expected. Interconnected graphene network shows very good electrical conduction property, thus demonstrates excellent electromagnetic interference shielding effectiveness. However, its brittleness greatly limits its real application. Here, we propose to directly infiltrate flexible poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) into interconnected reduced graphene network and form nanocomposite. The nanocomposite is superflexible, light weight, enhanced mechanical and improved electrical conductive. The nanocomposite is so superflexible that it could be tied as spring-like sucker. Only 1.07 wt % graphene significantly increases the tensile strengths by 64% as compared to neat PDMS. When the graphene weight percent is 3.07 wt %, the nanocomposite has the more excellent electrical conductivity up to 103 S/m, thus more outstanding EMI shielding effectiveness of around 54 dB in the X-band are achieved, which means that 99.999% EM has been shielded by this nanocomposite. Bluetooth communication testing with and without our nanocomposite confirms that our flexible nanocomposite has very excellent shielding effect. This flexible nanocomposite is very promising in the application of wearable devices, as electromagnetic interference shielding shelter.

Cobalt Ferrite/Polyetherimide Composites as Thermally Stable Materials for Electromagnetic Interference Shielding Uses.

Project description:The progress of the automated industry has introduced many benefits in our daily life, but it also produces undesired electromagnetic interference (EMI) that distresses the end-users and functionality of electronic devices. This article develops new composites based on a polyetherimide (PEI) matrix and cobalt ferrite (CoFe2O4) nanofiller (10-50 wt%) by mixing inorganic phase in the poly(amic acid) solution, followed by film casting and controlled heating, to acquire the corresponding imide structure. The composites were designed to contain both electric and magnetic dipole sources by including highly polarizable groups (phenyls, ethers, -CN) in the PEI structure and by loading this matrix with magnetic nanoparticles, respectively. The films exhibited high thermal stability, having the temperature at which decomposition begins in the interval of 450-487 °C. Magnetic analyses indicated a saturation magnetization, coercitive force, and magnetic remanence of 27.9 emu g-1, 705 Oe, and 9.57 emu g-1, respectively, for the PEI/CoFe2O4 50 wt%. Electrical measurements evidenced an increase in the conductivity from 4.42 10-9 S/cm for the neat PEI to 1.70 10-8 S/cm for PEI/CoFe2O4 50 wt% at 1 MHz. The subglass γ- and β-relaxations, primary relaxation, and conductivity relaxation were also examined depending on the nanofiller content. These novel composites are investigated from the point of view of their EMI shielding properties, showing that they are capable of attenuating the electric and magnetic parts of electromagnetic waves.

Porous and Ultra-Flexible Crosslinked MXene/Polyimide Composites for Multifunctional Electromagnetic Interference Shielding.

Project description:Lightweight, ultra-flexible, and robust crosslinked transition metal carbide (Ti3C2 MXene) coated polyimide (PI) (C-MXene@PI) porous composites are manufactured via a scalable dip-coating followed by chemical crosslinking approach. In addition to the hydrophobicity, anti-oxidation and extreme-temperature stability, efficient utilization of the intrinsic conductivity of MXene, the interfacial polarization between MXene and PI, and the micrometer-sized pores of the composite foams are achieved. Consequently, the composites show a satisfactory X-band electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding effectiveness of 22.5 to 62.5 dB at a density of 28.7 to 48.7 mg cm-3, leading to an excellent surface-specific SE of 21,317 dB cm2 g-1. Moreover, the composite foams exhibit excellent electrothermal performance as flexible heaters in terms of a prominent, rapid reproducible, and stable electrothermal effect at low voltages and superior heat performance and more uniform heat distribution compared with the commercial heaters composed of alloy plates. Furthermore, the composite foams are well attached on a human body to check their electromechanical sensing performance, demonstrating the sensitive and reliable detection of human motions as wearable sensors. The excellent EMI shielding performance and multifunctionalities, along with the facile and easy-to-scalable manufacturing techniques, imply promising perspectives of the porous C-MXene@PI composites in next-generation flexible electronics, aerospace, and smart devices.

A self-assembled graphene/polyurethane sponge for excellent electromagnetic interference shielding performance.

Project description:With the rapid development of personal computers and portable electronics, people have to get rid of a lot of unwanted electromagnetic pollution. The development of high performance electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding materials is of critical importance to address ever-increasing military and civilian demand. Owing to its high electrical conductivity and flexible 3D structure, graphene sponge has great potential for excellent EMI shielding performance. However, its EMI shielding performance suffers from the material's poor elasticity and durability. In this paper, we demonstrate the potential of a self-assembled graphene/polyurethane sponge composite, synthesized via a two-step hydrothermal method, for EMI shielding. This kind of material exhibits a high specific EMI shielding effectiveness of 969-1578 dB cm2 g-1 which is comparable or even superior to traditional graphene/polymer sponges. The excellent EMI shielding performance originates from the superconductivity of graphene and the highly porous structure of the graphene/polyurethane sponge. It is found that the polyurethane sponge works as a robust scaffold for graphene to shape its 3D structure. This work introduces a facile yet efficient two-step hydrothermal approach to prepare a graphene/polyurethane sponge with excellent EMI shielding performance and good durability.

High-Efficiency Electromagnetic Interference Shielding of rGO@FeNi/Epoxy Composites with Regular Honeycomb Structures.

Project description:With the rapid development of fifth-generation mobile communication technology and wearable electronic devices, electromagnetic interference and radiation pollution caused by electromagnetic waves have attracted worldwide attention. Therefore, the design and development of highly efficient EMI shielding materials are of great importance. In this work, the three-dimensional graphene oxide (GO) with regular honeycomb structure (GH) is firstly constructed by sacrificial template and freeze-drying methods. Then, the amino functionalized FeNi alloy particles (f-FeNi) are loaded on the GH skeleton followed by in-situ reduction to prepare rGH@FeNi aerogel. Finally, the rGH@FeNi/epoxy EMI shielding composites with regular honeycomb structure is obtained by vacuum-assisted impregnation of epoxy resin. Benefitting from the construction of regular honeycomb structure and electromagnetic synergistic effect, the rGH@FeNi/epoxy composites with a low rGH@FeNi mass fraction of 2.1 wt% (rGH and f-FeNi are 1.2 and 0.9 wt%, respectively) exhibit a high EMI shielding effectiveness (EMI SE) of 46 dB, which is 5.8 times of that (8 dB) for rGO/FeNi/epoxy composites with the same rGO/FeNi mass fraction. At the same time, the rGH@FeNi/epoxy composites also possess excellent thermal stability (heat-resistance index and temperature at the maximum decomposition rate are 179.1 and 389.0 °C respectively) and mechanical properties (storage modulus is 8296.2 MPa).

Superparamagnetic ZnFe2O4 Nanoparticles-Reduced Graphene Oxide-Polyurethane Resin Based Nanocomposites for Electromagnetic Interference Shielding Application.

Project description:Superparamagnetic ZnFe2O4 spinel ferrite nanoparticles were prepared by the sonochemical synthesis method at different ultra-sonication times of 25 min (ZS25), 50 min (ZS50), and 100 min (ZS100). The structural properties of ZnFe2O4 spinel ferrite nanoparticles were controlled via sonochemical synthesis time. The average crystallite size increases from 3.0 nm to 4.0 nm with a rise of sonication time from 25 min to 100 min. The change of physical properties of ZnFe2O4 nanoparticles with the increase of sonication time was observed. The prepared ZnFe2O4 nanoparticles show superparamagnetic behavior. The prepared ZnFe2O4 nanoparticles (ZS25, ZS50, and ZS100) and reduced graphene oxide (RGO) were embedded in a polyurethane resin (PUR) matrix as a shield against electromagnetic pollution. The ultra-sonication method has been used for the preparation of nanocomposites. The total shielding effectiveness (SET) value for the prepared nanocomposites was studied at a thickness of 1 mm in the range of 8.2-12.4 GHz. The high attenuation constant (α) value of the prepared ZS100-RGO-PUR nanocomposite as compared with other samples recommended high absorption of electromagnetic waves. The existence of electric-magnetic nanofillers in the resin matrix delivered the inclusive acts of magnetic loss, dielectric loss, appropriate attenuation constant, and effective impedance matching. The synergistic effect of ZnFe2O4 and RGO in the PUR matrix led to high interfacial polarization and, consequently, significant absorption of the electromagnetic waves. The outcomes and methods also assure an inventive and competent approach to develop lightweight and flexible polyurethane resin matrix-based nanocomposites, consisting of superparamagnetic zinc ferrite nanoparticles and reduced graphene oxide as a shield against electromagnetic pollution.
