Miniaturization of electronics demands electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding of nanoscale dimension. The authors report a systematic exploration of EMI shielding behavior of 2D Ti C T MXene assembled films over a broad range of film thicknesses, monolayer by monolayer. Theoretical models are used to explain the shielding mechanism below skin depth, where multiple reflection becomes significant, along with the surface reflection and bulk absorption of electromagnetic radiation. While a monolayer assembled film offers ≈20% shielding of electromagnetic waves, a 24-layer film of ≈55 nm thickness demonstrates 99% shielding (20 dB), revealing an extraordinarily large absolute shielding effectiveness (3.89 × 10 dB cm g ). This remarkable performance of nanometer-thin solution processable MXene proposes a paradigm shift in shielding of lightweight, portable, and compact next-generation electronic devices.

The disordered assembly and low conductivity of carbon nanotubes are the main problems that limit the application of electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding. In this work, an ordered lamellar assembly structure of multiwalled carbon nanotube/TiCT (MWCNT/TiCT) hybrid films was achieved by vacuum-assisted filtration through the hybridization of TiCT nanosheets and carbon nanotubes, where carbon nanotubes were tightly sticking on the surface of TiCT nanosheets via physical adsorption and hydrogen bonding. Compared with the pure carbon nanotubes films, the hybrid MWCNT/TiCT films achieved a significant improvement in conductivity of 452.

To protect against harmful electromagnetic interference (EMI), it is crucial to fabricate composite with high total electromagnetic shielding efficiency (SE); In this study, FeNi-NiFeO-SiO nanoparticles (NPs) were synthesized using one-pot method and decorated on carbon nanotube's (CNT) sidewall. The final product was magnetic-ceramic/conductive (FeNi-NiFeO-SiO/MWCNT) nanocomposite. The EMI shielding characteristic of FeNi-NiFeO-SiO NPs and FeNi-NiFeO-SiO/MWCNT nanocomposite was investigated in the range of X and Ku frequency band.

Interlayer and defect engineering significantly affects the electrical conductivity and electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding of TiCT MXene. Previous studies have prioritized the size of the intercalant over its synergy with chemical affinity, limiting the elucidation of the intercalation mechanism and the precise control of the interlayer spacing (spacing). Herein, we synthesize MXene aerogels with a tunable spacing and defect density using a series of amine molecules of different sizes and chemical affinities as intercalants and cross-linkers.

Titanium disulfide quantum dots (TiSQDs) has garnered significant research interest due to its distinctive electronic and optical properties. However, the effectiveness of TiSQDs in electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding is influenced by various factors, including their size, morphology, monodispersity, tunable bandgap, Stokes shift and interfacial effects. In this study, we propose a systematic approach for the synthesis of TiSQDs with small size (3.

Waste polyethylene (WPE) and virgin polyethylene (VPE) (50:50) thermoplastic have been melt-mixed with biochar (BC) made from orange peels at ratios of 5, 10, and 15(Phr) to evaluate how the filler content affected the mechanical, thermal, optical, electrical conductivity, and electromagnetic interference (EMI). γ-rays was applied to the prepared specimens to assess how radiation affected the created biocomposites. From the obtained results, the combination of BC with γ-rays, at doses of up to 100 kGy, with thermoplastic resulted in an enhanced mechanical property, particularly for composites containing 15 Phr of BC added because of its unique structure and excellent dispersion.
