Abstract
Although laser-induced graphene (LIG) has great advantages in the cost and manufacturing process, it has been seldom reported in the field of electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding due to its unobtrusive conductivity and the limitation of inherent substrates. In this work, polybenzoxazine is chosen as precursor to fabricate the LIG via a one-step defocused lasing process. As a result of favorable porous structures and high conductivity, the as-produced LIG exhibits the EMI shielding effectiveness up to 24.8 dB in X-band at the thickness of 68 μm. And the EMI shielding effectiveness of LIG/Fe3O4 composite is increased to 32.7 dB at a smaller thickness of 53 μm which is obtained by a solvent-free approach. When considering the thickness and lightweight properties, the absolute shielding effectiveness is also surpassing most of the other carbon-based shielding materials. More importantly, taking advantage of the difference in the thermal expansion coefficient of carbon material and polymeric substrate, we develop a rapid quench-peeling (RQP) strategy for the separation of LIG from polymeric substrate to obtain the free-standing LIG film. Moreover, the structures and properties of LIG are well preserved. The free-standing LIG films after peeling have wider adaptability in practical EMI shielding applications, and also opened up possibilities for use in other fields, such as Joule heating device.
