Stainless steel (SS) blended yarns with electromagnetic interference (EMI) were made into woven fabrics, after which the fabrics were evaluated with electromagnetic shielding effectiveness (EMSE). Parameters of laminated angle and the lamination number layers affected the fabrics’ EMSE differently. In addition, density of unidirectional SS yarns affected EMSE in frequency range of 200 to 500 MHz , so as the density of cross SS yarns on a frequency over 1000 MHz.

In this paper, electromagnetic shielding effectiveness of woven fabrics with high electrical conductivity is investigated. Electromagnetic interference-shielding woven-textile composite materials were developed from a highly electrically conductive blend of polyester and the coated yarns of Au on a polyamide base. A complete analytical model of the electromagnetic shielding effectiveness of the materials with apertures is derived in detail, including foil, material with one aperture, and material with multiple apertures (fabrics). The derived analytical model is compared for fabrics with measurement of real samples. The key finding of the research is that the presented analytical model expands the shielding theory and is valid for woven fabrics manufactured from mixed and coated yarns with a value of electrical conductivity equal to and/or higher than σ = 244 S/m and an excellent electromagnetic shielding effectiveness value of 25–50 dB at 0.03–1.5 GHz, which makes it a promising candidate for application in electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding.

In this study, a composite plain material is composed of woven fabrics containing metal wire with shielding ability and polyester filament that can provide flexibility and far-infrared emissivity. Furthermore, a wrapping process is used to form metal/far-infrared–polyester wrapped yarns, which are then made into metal/far-infrared–polyester woven fabrics. The effects of using stainless steel wire, Cu (copper) wire, or Ni–Cu (nickel-coated copper) wire on the wrapped yarns and woven fabrics are examined in terms of tensile properties, electrical properties, and electromagnetic shielding effectiveness. Moreover, SS+Cu+Ni-Cu woven fabrics have maximum tensile strength, while SS+Ni-Cu woven fabrics have the maximum elongation and SS+Cu+Ni-Cu woven fabrics have the lowest surface resistivity. Stainless steel composite woven fabrics have far-infrared emissivity of 0.89 when they are composed of double layers. electromagnetic shielding effectiveness test results indicate that changing the number of lamination layers and lamination angle has a positive influence on electromagnetic shielding effectiveness of woven fabrics. In particular, SS+Cu+Ni-Cu woven fabrics exhibit electromagnetic shielding effectiveness of −50 dB at a frequency of 2000–3000 MHz when they are laminated with three layers at 90°.

In this study, stainless steel, copper, and silver wires were intermingled with two polyamide 6.6 filaments through the commingling technique to produce three-component hybrid yarns. The produced hybrid yarns were used as weft in the structure of plain woven fabric samples. The electromagnetic shielding effectiveness parameters of samples were measured in the frequency range of 0.8–5.2 GHz by the free space technique. The effects of metal hybrid yarn placement, number of fabric layers, metal types, and wave polarization on the electromagnetic shielding effectiveness and absorption and reflection properties of the woven fabrics were analyzed statistically at low and high frequencies separately. As a result, the samples have no shielding property in the warp direction. Metal types show no statistically significant effect on electromagnetic shielding effectiveness. However, fabrics containing stainless steel have a higher absorption power ratio than copper and silver samples. Double-layer samples have higher electromagnetic shielding effectiveness values than single-layer fabrics in both frequency ranges. However, the number of layers does not have a significant effect on the absorbed and reflected power in the range of 0.8–2.6 GHz. There was a significant difference above 2.6 GHz frequency for absorbed power ratio. An increase in the density of hybrid yarns in the fabric structure leads to an increase in the electromagnetic shielding effectiveness values. Two-metal placement has a higher absorbed power than the full and one-metal placements, respectively. The samples which have double layers and including metal wire were in their all wefts reached the maximum electromagnetic shielding effectiveness values for stainless steel (78.70 dB), copper (72.69 dB), and silver composite (57.50 dB) fabrics.

In order to fabricate fabrics with electromagnetic shielding effectiveness (EMSE) and other function, we fabricated Crisscross-section polyester /antibacterial nylon / stainless steel wires (CSP/AN/SSW) composite yarns with stainless wires as core yarn, antibacterial nylon and crisscross-section polyester as inner and out wrapped yarns, respectively. Knitted fabrics were fabricated with the metal composite yarns with wrap amount of 8 turns/cm on a circular knitted machine. Furthermore, the EMSE of the metal composite fabrics were evaluated by changing the lamination amounts and lamination angles. The results show that when the lamination amount was four, lamination angles were 0°/45°/90°/-45°, the EMSE of the fabrics reached to-10--20 dB in the frequency range of 300 KHz to 3 GHz.

Electromagnetic radiation is becoming increasingly serious around our living environment, which seriously endangers people's health and interferes with the operation of electronic equipment. The research and development of anti-electromagnetic radiation fabric have drawn more and more attention. However, the influencing rules and mechanisms of conductive fiber content, fabric tightness, warp–weft density, conductive yarn arrangement, weave type, and electromagnetic wave frequency on fabric electromagnetic shielding effectiveness have not been clarified. Therefore, in this study, a series of fabrics containing stainless steel fibers were produced. Meanwhile, the influencing rules of various factors on electromagnetic shielding effectiveness and the quantitative relationship between some factors and electromagnetic shielding effectiveness were discussed. The results showed that all factors had different degrees of influence on electromagnetic shielding effectiveness, and the relationship between electromagnetic shielding effectiveness and electromagnetic wave frequency could be approximately expressed as: [Formula: see text]. At the same time, the influencing mechanisms of various factors on electromagnetic shielding effectiveness were analyzed in combination with fabric microstructure and macrostructure, the intrinsic parameters of the fabric and the electromagnetic shielding effectiveness mechanism. The results are expected to provide a reference for the establishment of electromagnetic shielding fabric model and enterprise production.

The lightweight multilayer-structured electromagnetic interference shielding composite coatings with controllable electromagnetic gradient on wood surface were prepared via a simple multiple electroless copper–nickel (Cu–Ni) approach. The surface morphology, conductivity, hydrophobicity property and electromagnetic shielding effectiveness of the composite coatings were investigated. The surface roughness and conductivity of the composite coatings were enhanced with the increase in the number of depositions. The surface morphology demonstrated that the roughness was decreased with the process of multiple electroless. The coatings were compact and homogeneous as the deposition run was three. Here, the Sa (Sa illustrated Surface Roughness) value of coatings was 4.497 μm. The ideal conductivity of composite coatings can be obtained as the number of depositions was four. Electromagnetic shielding effectiveness reached average 90.69 dB in the frequency range from 300 kHz to 2.0 GHz. This study provides a new pathway for fabricating lightweight multilayer-structured electromagnetic interference shielding with controllable electromagnetic gradient and hydrophobic composite coatings-based wood.

This study prepares and explores the properties of three types of woven fabrics that have electromagnetic shielding effectiveness (EMSE), far infrared (FIR) emissivity, or both (EMSE/FIR). The EMSE woven fabrics use stainless steel (SS) staple blended yarn and the FIR woven fabrics use FIR polyester filaments. The woven fabrics are made with various structures, densities, lamination layers, and warp/weft arrangements in order to yield the optimum EMSE and FIR emissivity. The experimental results show that an increase in SS content slightly increases the EMSE at the frequency range between 300 and 600 MHz, but does not significantly increase the EMSE at a high frequency of between 2000 and 2200 MHz. However, using SS staple blended yarn for both the warp and the weft significantly increases the EMSE by between −8 and −16 dB. The FIR emissivity increases as a result of an increasing amount of FIR polyester filament and reaches the optimum, 0.88.
