  • TABLE OF CONTENTS
  • Electromagnetic shielding material is a functional material that reduces electromagnetic wave energy propagation through absorption and reflection to effectively suppress electromagnetic interference and pollution.

    With the development of modern high-tech, people's lives are filled with various highly integrated and high-power electronic equipment, which leads to the increasingly prominent problems of electromagnetic interference and electromagnetic pollution. Electromagnetic waves not only cause interference and damage to electronic instruments and equipment but also pollute the environment and endanger human health. Therefore, electromagnetic shielding material has become an important issue of worldwide concern. Economic and technological developments have brought about a surge in consumer electronics product demand. In addition, major countries around the world have accelerated the pace of 5G commercialization. The advancement of 5G construction relies more on the deployment of miniaturized base stations, and the increase in the number of communication base stations will also increase the electromagnetic radiation, which will further promote the demand for the electromagnetic shielding market. The increasing demand for the automotive market and the multi-functionalization of in-vehicle systems have also driven the growth of the electromagnetic shielding materials market.
