Abstract
With the fast advancement of modern electronic technology, electromagnetic (EM) wave pollution has immensely increased which seriously affects sensitive electronic equipment as well as human health. It is an urgent demand to develop flexible electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding sheets to control electromagnetic pollution. Here, we have synthesized a set of flexible, cost-effective, and lightweight EMI shielding materials; poly (ethylene-co-methyl acrylate) (EMA) and ethylene-octene co-polymer (EOC) (50:50) blend composites with different wt% of Ti3C2Tx loading by the solution casting and compression molding technique. The prepared blend composites were studied by XRD and FESEM, and the thermal properties were studied by DSC and TGA. With the addition of 15 wt% of Ti3C2Tx, the total EMI shielding value of − 60.85 dB was achieved in microwave S-band (2–4 GHz) combined with good thermal and electrical properties. Therefore, these flexible EMA/EOC/Ti3C2Tx ternary composites perceive promising applications as high effective EMI shielding materials and protection for portable devices, artificial intelligence, high-power system, and wearable electronic equipment.
