Highly Durable, Flexible, and Conductive Silver Nanowire Film for Transparent Electromagnetic Interference Shielding

초록/요약

The flexible and foldable devices released electromagnetic wave and are exposed to cyclic fatigue with repeated bending. Electromagnetic wave emissions can cause product malfunction and human health hazards. Therefore, flexible electromagnetic shielding and durability strategies for repeated fatigue are becoming increasingly necessary. In this study, we fabricated a transparent silver nanowire (SNW) electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding film by wet sintering process, which can enhance NW networking structure. We also improved durability of that film using hexadecyltrimethoxysilane (HDTMS) and polyurethane elastomer (PE). The wet-sintered silver nanowire (SSN) shielding film had a threshold radius of curvature (ROC) of 0.8 mm at a film thickness of 100 μm, which indicated high flexibility, whereas a threshold ROC of the conventional indium tin oxide (ITO) shielding film is more than 6 mm. the threshold ROC of graphene (G) /PE/SSN film decreases by half time from 0.8 to 0.43 mm than as compared to SSN film. The variation of the resistance changes (ΔR/R0) of hydrophobic coating (HC)/PE/SSN film on 25 μm PET is no changed and that film maintains constant contact angle after 300,000 cycles of bending test at 2 mm ROC. The electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding effectiveness (SE) of the PE/SSN film was approximately twice that of the ITO film at a similar relative transmittance 85%. The HC/PE/SSN film showed high temperature and humidity durability with little change in the resistance over 300 h at 85 °C and 85% relative humidity due to the hydrophobic coating layer. The multilayer film exhibited high flexibility, durability, high shielding performance 24.22 dB at a relative transmittance of 85.5%, making it highly applicable for use as a transparent shielding material for future foldable and flexible devices.
