PROCESS FOR PREPARING ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCE SHIELDING MATERIALS

The present invention relates to a process for preparing an electromagnetic interference shielding material, or a precursor thereof, comprising a first polymer matrix and carbon conductive loads, said process comprises the steps of: (a) Forming a reaction mixture comprising carbon conductive loads and a polymerizable medium said polymerizable medium comprising one or more monomers dissolved in a solvent, (b) Exposing the reaction mixture to polymerization conditions to polymerize said polymerizable medium and thus form a polymer, and (c) Forming a precipitate or an agglomerate of an electromagnetic interference shielding material made of less than 50 wt.% carbon conductive loads dispersed in the first polymer matrix formed in step (b), characterized in that, said polymer is insoluble in said solvent and in that a fraction of the polymer chains thus formed are grafted on part of the surface of the carbon conductive loads.
