According to the results of these experiments a distinct effect is present. The effect is dependent on the tubular filler properties and on the morphology of the composite. At a loading of 5.4 wt% single-walled carbon nanotubes in polycarbonate an attenuation of the field of 47 dB could be detected, which corresponds an attenuation of the power of 99.998%.enghttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/530Carbon fibresCarbon nanotubesElectromagnetic interferenceElectromagnetic shieldingPolycarbonateAttenuation of electromagnetic waves by carbon nanotube compositesArticle
