EMI shielding of ABS composites filled with different temperature-treated equal-quantity charcoals

Acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS) composites were prepared by dry mixing equal-quantity (20 wt%) charcoals treated at different temperatures followed by hot compression. Processing parameters were kept the same. Seven samples of the same charcoal were modified for carbonization at different temp...

Sumario:Acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS) composites were prepared by dry mixing equal-quantity (20 wt%) charcoals treated at different temperatures followed by hot compression. Processing parameters were kept the same. Seven samples of the same charcoal were modified for carbonization at different temperatures varying from 500 °C to 1100 °C in steps of 100 °C. Temperature treatment of charcoal crafts an increase in the conductivity of ABS composites, primarily accountable for the enhancement of shielding. The electromagnetic shielding effectiveness in the X-band (8.2–12.4 GHz) has been discovered to significantly increase for composites with ascending temperature-treated charcoals. An abrupt increase in the conductivity of ABS composites containing equal quantities of charcoal subjected to enhanced temperature treatments truly explains the effective absorption behaviour. The composite containing 1100 °C temperature-treated charcoal shows absorption-dominated SE of ∼36.8 dB at 11.6 GHz. Dielectric behaviour proclaims a decrease in dielectric loss (ε′′) with an increase in the frequency. Besides this, the increased carbonization temperatures also show increased porosity and high dielectric losses. The scanning electron microscopy studies validate the increase in the porosity of charcoals due to the increase in the treatment temperature. The results are promising for the development of custom-made shielding composites possessing equal quantities of charcoal treated at enhanced temperatures.
