Method for Improving Electromagnetic Shielding Performance of Composite Materials by Electropulsing

Abstract

A method of improving the electromagnetic (EM) shielding performance of a composite material is provided. The composite has conductive and semi- conductive filler particles suspended in a non-conductive resin. The filler particles make up 0-40 weight percent of the composite. The composite is subjected to an exponentially decaying pulse from an energy source such that the energy of the pulse is less than that required to cause localized melting of the composite.
