Abstract

Microstructure and electromagnetic interference shielding effectiveness of electroless Ni–P deposits obtained from an alkaline hypophosphite reducing electroless nickel bath was studied. The effects of plating temperature on the deposition rate, surface morphology, chemical composition and structure of the electroless Ni–P deposits were investigated. Surface resistance and electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding effectiveness (SE) of Ni–P plated polyester fabric were also evaluated. The results demonstrated electroless Ni–P plated polyester fabric present useful EMI shielding materials.
