Bifunctional 3D ordered graphene-based all-carbon foam/polymer composite materials for thermal management and electromagnetic shielding
摘要
The increasing popularity of electronic devices is placing higher demands on thermal management and electromagnetic interference shielding effectiveness. Based on the preparation process of three-dimensional (3D) ordered carbon skeleton, 3D graphene-based all-carbon foams with graphene, graphitized polyimide and graphite nanosheets (GNs) were constructed by cross-linking graphene oxide and GNs using polyamide acid. After compositing the 3D skeleton with PDMS, a bifunctional composite material with thermal conductivity and electromagnetic shielding properties was obtained, with thermal conductivity of 5.06 W/(m⋅K), in addition to an electromagnetic shielding efficiency of 40.8 dB for K-band. The 3D skeleton successfully combines graphene and the polymer substrate, avoiding the direct bonding that leads to lower heat transfer efficiency, and the fabricated PDMS/GGF materials exhibit excellent performance, making them ideal for applications in electronic devices that require EMI shielding and effective thermal management.
