  • Patent number: 8987611
    Abstract: A shielding article includes a polymeric conductive layer and a protective layer disposed adjacent the polymeric conductive layer. The polymeric conductive layer provides electromagnetic shielding characteristics so as to prevent receipt of data from a radio frequency information component by an external device when the component is located between the external device on one side and the polymeric conductive and protective layers on the other side. The shielding article may be shaped to substantially surround the radio frequency information component.

  • Patent number: 8963022
    Abstract: A panel for an electromagnetic shield includes a light-weight, porous, electrically-conductive, fluid-permeable planar core layer defined between generally parallel first and second surfaces and a first face sheet laminated to the first surface of the core layer with rigidity properties superior to the rigidity properties of the core layer. The thickness of the first face sheet is substantially less than the thickness of the core layer. The core layer is made of metallic foam or a metal coating on an electrically-nonconductive, porous, nonmetallic substrate chosen from among nonwoven fibrous matting, paper, and open-cell nonmetallic foam. Also, the core layer may also may be made up of liberated branching metal nanostrands or a plurality of electrically-coupled, electrically-conductive particles, each taking the from of an electrically-nonconductive, nonmetallic substrate with a metal coating.

  • Patent number: 8957326
    Abstract: A composite dual blackened copper foil includes a copper foil and two blackened layers. The copper foil has a shiny side and a matte side. The blackened layers are formed on the shiny and matte sides respectively. The blackened layers are formed alloy by electroplating in a plating bath consisting essentially of copper, cobalt, nickel, manganese, magnesium and sodium ions. A rough layer is selectively formed between the blackened layer and the shiny side as well as the matte side. Both side of the copper foil is spotless, powder free, and good in etching quality. The copper foil is effective at blocking electromagnetic wave, near infrared, undesired light and the like. The copper foil exhibits strong light absorption and is applicable to direct gas laser drilling. A method of manufacturing the composite dual blackened copper foil is also provided.
