Article Abstract

Liquid exfoliated, 2-dimensional (2D), few layered graphene and molybdenum disulfide nanosheets (GNS and MNS) are size selected for EMI shielding application. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) has confirmed the lateral dimensions increase (1-2 µm for GNS and MNS) with lowering centrifugation speed (1000 to 500 rpm). The micron size (~ 15 µm) restacked structures of GNS and MNS (L ~ 2 µm) over a nylon membrane have shown ~ 16 dB and ~ 6 dB EMI shielding effectiveness (1-8 GHz frequency), respectively. The enhanced EMI shielding effectiveness for GNS-500 may be credited to its high carrier mobility as well as high aspect ratio of nanosheets. The GNS-500 are further dispersed (0.3 wt.%) in thermoplastic polyurethane for their applicability as flexible EMI shielding material. The dielectric characteristics predicted an enhancement for the attenuation (200 MHz-1 GHz). The experimental results (1-8 GHz) suggested the maximum attenuation ~ 18 dB showing the composite applicability as a broadband EMI shielding material.

The development of cellulose-based electromagnetic shielding materials is critical for the advancement of sustainable, lightweight, and flexible electronic devices. Most high-performance composites rely on nanocellulose, which is expensive and energy-intensive to produce. In this work, we employ chemically modified conventional eucalyptus pulp fibers (non-nano) to fabricate Janus-structured cellulose/MXene composite papers.

With the rapid advancement in autonomous vehicles, 5G and future 6G communications, medical imaging, spacecraft, and stealth fighter jets, the frequency range of electromagnetic waves continues to expand, making electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding a critical challenge for ensuring the safe operation of equipment. Although some existing EMI shielding materials offer lightweight construction, high strength, and effective shielding, they struggle to efficiently absorb broadband electromagnetic waves and mitigate dimensional instability and thermal stress caused by temperature fluctuations. These limitations significantly reduce their service life and restrict their practical applications.

Rapid strides in portable electronics and telecommunication technologies have sharply escalated the demand for high-performance electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding materials that effectively suppress secondary electromagnetic pollution while simultaneously integrating thermal management. Here an innovative, lightweight, hierarchical triple-layer aerogel structure comprising nickel (Ni) foam (NiF), titanium carbonitride (TiCNT) MXene, and poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA), fabricated via a facile, one-step bidirectional freeze-casting process is presented. This asymmetric aerogel architecture strategically employs an impedance-matching MXene/PVA top layer for optimized microwave entry, a NiF/MXene/PVA interlayer introducing magnetic loss and enhancing heat conduction, and a reflective, thermally foamed MXene bottom layer promoting internal reflection for superior energy absorption.
