Abstract

In this study, shielding effectiveness for a few composite films was examined. Composites were prepared by combining thermoplastic polyurethane, polyaniline and ferrite cobalt. The composites were synthesized in several steps by the hydrothermal and melt blending method. Different tests were performed to characterize ferrite cobalt, polyaniline/ferrite cobalt and final ternary composite. The effect of weight percentage of each component, the thickness of composite on electromagnetic interference shielding effectiveness was studied. The sample with an average of 36.7 dB in the X-band had the best performance and the highest amount at 10.9 GHz was achieved (SET = 41.83). The results showed that absorption and reflection had two effective mechanisms for shielding. Also, the absorption coefficient with 78% of total shielding effectiveness was highest and polyaniline had a significant role in the absorption mechanism. Besides, the thickness was a key factor for production of wave-absorbent composites. Finally, by using the design-expert software, optimization was performed to achieve the SET ≥ 20 and it was found that the composite should have the following parameters: ferrite cobalt content in polyaniline (16.25 wt %), polyaniline/ferrite cobalt content in thermoplastic polyurethane (63.66 wt %) and a thickness of 1.22 mm.
