EMI Shielding with Textile Fabrics: An Unadorned Review

501–514 (2025)

PACS numbers: 81.05.U-, 81.05.Zx, 83.60.Np, 83.80.Mc, 85.40.Ls, 87.50.C-, 87.85.jf

Electromagnetic radiation emitted from various sources need to be shielded. Especially, in case of human beings, this is of prime significance. EMI shielding can be done using various shields with more and more flexibility through stretchable, bendable, and droppable shields. In view of human health and its importance, lot of emphasis has been laid in developing textile fabrics, which can exhibit shielding properties along with mechanical strength, based on textile structure and material. The required characteristics such as electric and magnetic properties in normal textile fabrics are not up to the mark. Hence, these properties are to be added. This can be achieved by coating the layer, conductive yarn or magnetic fibre integration, etc. Based on the previous work done, an attempt was made to review the various materials and their use for this very purpose. This mainly includes fabrics with metal coating, MXene coating, carbon coating, etc. It is observed that high conductivity and effective EMI shielding make MXenes to be in the forefront in EMI shielded fabrics, while other coatings (magnetic and conductive) will be the next choice.

KEY WORDS: textile fabrics, EMI shielding, shielding effectiveness
