Preparation and Characterization of (PMMA-PVC-MWCNTs) Nanocomposite for EMI Shielding Application

Abstract

The (PVC-PMMA-MWCNTs) nanocomposites have prepared by Solution cast technique with different concentrations of CNTs (0, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5), casted in a clean glass plate. The structures of nanocomposites have been studied. The structural properties include Fourier Transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscope (SEM). The effect of  radar in the range (8-12) GHZ  on (PVC-PMMA-MWCNTs) nanocomposite films, were studied as applications for shielding from Electromagnetic Interference (EMI), and has been noticed that the shielding effectiveness increases with the increase of concentration of MWCNTs.
