Abstract

As a critical action plan formulated for peaking carbon dioxide emissions, polymeric electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding materials based on CO₂ foaming technology have recently been attracting widespread attention in both research and industry, attributable to their efficient use of CO₂ , high specific strength, corrosion resistance and low-cost characteristics. In the past decade, the emergence of novel design concepts and preparation techniques for CO₂ foaming technology has led to the development of new high-performance EMI shielding materials in this field. This review summarizes the research progress made to date on the fabrication of EMI shielding composite foams by supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO₂ ) foaming. We also explore the structure-activity relationships between the component/distribution and EMI shielding properties. Additionally, the application prospects and development challenges of new EMI shielding composite foams are described.

Keywords: Electromagnetic interference shielding; Microcellular foaming; Peaking carbon dioxide emissions; Structural design; Supercritical carbon dioxide.
