    Abstract:
    It is well-known that attractive electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding performance depends on functional (e.g., electrical and magnetic) fillers and structural designs. This paper presents a novel three-layered sandwich structure of poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF)-based nanocomposites, consisting of graphene nanoplatelets (GNP), nickel (Ni), and carbon nanotubes (CNT). The unique three-layered sandwich structure of GNP-Ni-CNT exhibited excellent EMI shielding ability due to the several interfaces of the multilayered structure with electric loss by the conductive fillers and magnetic loss by the magnetic filler. The overall shielding performance could be further improved by increasing the overall thickness and the number of layers. With a fixed thickness of 0.6 mm, the shielding effectiveness of the PVDF/GNP-Ni-CNT three-layered and six-layered structure composite at 15 GHz was 41.8 and 46.4 dB, respectively. These results provide a useful strategy to prepare various EMI shielding materials with a sandwich structure, presenting tremendous opportunities to design and manufacture advanced EMI shielding materials and equipment.
