dc.description.abstractThe increasing demand for high-frequency applications and the widespread use of electromagnetic (EM) waves in communication systems necessitate the development of effective electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding materials. This study investigates the structural and shielding effectiveness properties of novel polyaniline (PANI)-based NiO/ZnNb2O6 composites for sub-8 GHz applications. NiO and ZnNb2O6 were synthesized via conventional solid-state reactions and combined with PANI to form composites with varying compositions. X-ray diffraction (XRD) confirmed the successful formation of single-phase NiO and ZnNb2O6, while scanning electron microscopy (SEM) revealed well-defined microstructures, contributing to enhanced shielding efficiency. Shielding effectiveness (SE) measurements were performed across the 0-8 GHz frequency range using a vector network analyzer. Among the compositions tested, the epoxy-based NiO-ZnNb2O6 (75-25% by weight) with a 1:1 PANI ratio exhibited the highest SE value of -41.16 dB (decibels) at 6.24 GHz, demonstrating superior attenuation of EM waves. The observed shielding efficiency is attributed to multiple reflection effects, dipole interactions, and the conductive network formed by PANI. These findings highlight the potential of NiO/PANI/ZnNb2O6 composites as cost-effective, high-performance EMI shielding materials for next-generation microwave communication and electronic applications. Further optimization and hybridization approaches are recommended to enhance performance for broader frequency bands.
