Porous Nanocomposites for Electromagnetic Interference Shielding

Book excerpt: Porous Nanocomposites for Electromagnetic Interference Shielding thoroughly discusses the fabrication, processing and design parameters of advanced materials for electromagnetic pollution suppression for high-frequency electronics. The book provides readers with an understanding of the important concepts and relevant advances in the engineering of porous nanocomposites for enhanced microwave absorption and EMI shielding. Porous materials reviewed include foams and aerogels which offer a robust and lightweight solution to design and fabricate microwave absorbers that can be a potential solution to stifle electromagnetic (EM) pollution. The aim of this book is to review the recent advances in the area of porous nanocomposites that have the ability to absorb EM radiation and thereby suppress EM pollution. It will be ideal for materials scientists and engineers working in academia, research and development in industry. - Reviews the latest advances in the fabrication, processing, and design of porous nanocomposites for enhanced microwave absorption and EMI shielding applications - Provides key information on the most relevant porous nanocomposites for EMI shielding, including aerogels and foams derived from polymers, ceramics, carbon, and other advanced materials - Discusses life cycle analysis and recycling considerations of porous nanocomposites
