Abstract

Electromagnetic (EM) shielding performance for a plastic composite by employing polyimide-based dispersive multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) is presented. A well-dispersed MWCNT composite offers a higher electrical conductivity with a lower weight percentage of MWCNTs. The dispersive MWCNT composites with their high shielding effectiveness (SE) are suitable for packaging low-cost optical transceiver modules used in fiber to the home (FTTH) lightwave transmission systems.
