  • Patent number: 9233517
    Abstract: Disclosed is an electromagnetic shielding sheet that has a smaller increase in the thickness of a base after the formation of a metal coating film when compared with conventional electromagnetic shielding sheets, and which has excellent electromagnetic wave shielding properties despite a small amount of adhered metal. According to the present invention, the electromagnetic shielding sheet can endure metal working processes and has high electromagnetic wave shielding properties, resulting in a thin, very flexible fabric sheet. Specifically disclosed is an electromagnetic shielding sheet which is composed of a laminated non-woven fabric that has at least a first layer and a second layer, and which is characterized in that the first layer is a layer of thermoplastic synthetic fibers having a fiber diameter of 6 ?m to 50 ?m, the second layer is a layer of ultrafine fibers having a fiber diameter of 0.1 ?m to 5.0 ?m, and a metal is adhered to at least one surface of the sheet.
