Abstract

This paper highlights the Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) Shielding Effectiveness and electromagnetic wave attenuation behavior of Polyaniline/Camphor Sulphonic Acid (PANI-CSA) – tungsten oxide (WO3) composites. Insitu polymerization of aniline monomer with camphor sulphonic acid (CSA) as a dopant was carried out in the presence of ammonium persulphate an oxidizing agent to synthesize PANI-CSA tungsten oxide composites (PANI/CSA-WO3) by chemical oxidation method. The composites have been synthesized with various compositions (10, 20, 30, 40 and 50 wt %) of tungsten oxide in PANI/CSA matrix. The EMI shielding measurements were carried out in the broad microwave spectrum covering the frequency range from 12 to 18 GHz (Ku-Band). The results show the influence of tungsten oxide in PANI/CSA over the EMI shielding Effectiveness. The composites have shown excellent microwave absorption behavior confirmed by the EMI Shielding Effectiveness values of the order of −15 to −16 dB.
