Graphene-Bearing Polymer Composites: Applications to Electromagnetic Interference Shielding and Flame-Retardant Materials
暫譯: 含石墨烯聚合物複合材料：在電磁干擾屏蔽和阻燃材料中的應用

本書探討了含有電導性石墨烯的聚合物複合材料在電磁干擾（EMI）屏蔽和阻燃應用中的最新發展。它強調了石墨烯及其基材料在這些複合材料中的卓越性能。這本書提供了對EMI屏蔽、阻燃性和聚合物複合材料加工的基本原理的全面概述，並針對與開發先進的含石墨烯材料相關的關鍵方面進行了探討。本書旨在填補專門聚焦於EMI屏蔽和阻燃基本原理、加工技術及應用特定發展的綜述文獻中的空白。

討論的一個重要方面是通過改變混合形態和選擇性定位石墨烯基納米填料來定制電氣性能。這一方面在以往的文章或書籍中並未得到充分的涵蓋。通過解決這一研究空白，本書成為研究人員深入理解分子層面及結果解釋的重要資源。本書專注於加工先進的功能複合材料以實現EMI屏蔽和阻燃性，促進了對該主題的分子理解。預期將為未來先進聚合物複合材料的發展鋪平道路。研究人員和學者將發現本書是不可或缺的，因為它提供了基本概念的整體概述以及對當前研究複雜性的見解。
