摘要：Liquid exfoliated, 2-dimensional (2D), few layered graphene and molybdenum disulfide nanosheets (GNS and MNS) are size selected for EMI shielding application. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) has confirmed the lateral dimensions increase (1–2 µm for GNS and MNS) with lowering centrifugation speed (1000 to 500 rpm). The micron size (~ 15 µm) restacked structures of GNS and MNS (L ~ 2 µm) over a nylon membrane have shown ~ 16 dB and ~ 6 dB EMI shielding effectiveness (1–8 GHz frequency), respectively. The enhanced EMI shielding effectiveness for GNS-500 may be credited to its high carrier mobility as well as high aspect ratio of nanosheets. The GNS-500 are further dispersed (0.3 wt.%) in thermoplastic polyurethane for their applicability as flexible EMI shielding material. The dielectric characteristics predicted an enhancement for the attenuation (200 MHz–1 GHz). The experimental results (1–8 GHz) suggested the maximum attenuation ~ 18 dB showing the composite applicability as a broadband EMI shielding material.
