Abstract
Natural rubber (NR) based nanocomposites with different fillers (fullerene, carbon nanotubes (CNT) and graphene (GNP)) in concentrations from 2 to 10 phr have been prepared. Their coefficients of absorption and reflection of the electromagnetic waves and electromagnetic interference shielding effectiveness have been investigated in the 1-12 GHz frequency range. The high conductivity, small diameter, high aspect ratio, and high electrical and thermal conductivity of studied carbon nanofillers make them an excellent option to create conductive composites for high-performance EMI shielding materials in the frequency range 1-7 GHz at low filling concentration. 58 Refs.
