Abstract

Electrothermal materials can easily and controllably convert electric energy into heat energy, and are widely used in many electrothermal fields. In this paper, a series of conductive pastes were simply prepared by ball milling, and their rheological and electrothermal properties were studied. Phenolic resin was used as curing agent of epoxy resin and rheological modifier, which could make the paste have very good printing applicability. Ultrafine carbon(UC) powder has excellent dispersion effect. Sheet carbon materials such as graphite powder(GP), graphite nanosheet(GS) and graphene(GE) would improve the performance of paste using only UC as conductive filler. It was proved that GE with the smallest thickness has the most obvious lifting effect. UC was gathered around the graphene sheet, as a bridge between graphene sheets. GE could also be connected with each other to build a more effective and denser conductive path. The electrothermal film could reach 199°C under 30 V voltage, increasing by 254.7% compared with the electrothermal film with only UC as conductive filler. The electrothermal film had a short response time, good recyclability and excellent flexibility. The electrothermal film also had certain electromagnetic shielding efficiency. The electromagnetic shielding efficiency SE could reach about 20 dB at 30–1500 MHz, and the ratio of field strength before and after attenuation SE% could reach 97% + . This electrothermal film has simple preparation process, good printing applicability, controllable film resistance, excellent flexibility, fast response speed and good recyclability. It is suitable for large-scale preparation and has broad application prospects in many scenarios.
