DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
[0037] The embodiments of the present invention will be explained in detail referring to the attached drawings, and it should be noted that explanations of one embodiment are applicable to other embodiments unless otherwise mentioned. Also, the following explanations are not restrictive, but various modifications may be made within the scope of the present invention.
[0038]
[0039] [1] Electromagnetic-Wave-Absorbing Magnetic Film
[0040] As shown in
[0041] (1) Magnetic Powder
[0042] The magnetic powder 11 may be soft-magnetic metal powder or soft-magnetic ferrite powder.
[0043] The soft-magnetic metals include pennalloys (FeNi alloys), super permalloys (FeNiMo alloys), Sendusts (FeSiAl alloys), FeSi alloys, FeCo alloys, FeCr alloys, FeCrSi alloys, FeSiB(CuNb) alloys, FeNiCrSi alloys, FeSiAlNiCr alloys, amorphous Fe alloys, amorphous Co alloys, etc.
[0044] The soft-magnetic metal powder is preferably flat. The aspect ratio of the flat soft-magnetic metal powder is preferably 10-100, more preferably 10-50. The average diameter (plane direction) of the flat soft-magnetic metal powder is preferably 30-100 m, more preferably 50-90 m. The average thickness of the flat soft-magnetic metal powder is preferably 0.1-1 m.
[0045] The soft-magnetic ferrites include NiZn ferrite, CuZn ferrite, MnZn ferrite, etc. The average particle size of the soft-magnetic ferrite powder is preferably 0.1-30 m.
[0046] (2) Binder Resin
[0047] The binder resin 12 having excellent flexibility includes polyolefins such as polyethylene, polypropylene, etc., polyesters such as polyethylene terephthalate, etc., polystyrenes, polyvinyl chloride, acrylic resins, polyurethanes, polycarbonates, polyamides, polyimides, silicone resins, synthetic rubbers, natural rubbers, etc.
[0048] (3) Amount of Magnetic Powder
[0049] The amount of the magnetic powder 11 in the electromagnetic-wave-absorbing magnetic film 1 is preferably 30% or more by volume, more preferably 30-60% by volume.
[0050] (4) Thickness of Electromagnetic-Wave-Absorbing Magnetic Film
[0051] The thickness of the electromagnetic-wave-absorbing magnetic film 1 is preferably 0.05-2 mm, more preferably 0.1-1 mm. When the electromagnetic-wave-absorbing magnetic film is thinner than 0.05 mm, sufficient electromagnetic wave absorbability by the magnetic powder cannot be obtained. On the other hand, when it is thicker than 2 mm, the electromagnetic-wave-absorbing composite sheet is too thick.
[0052] [2] Electromagnetic-Wave-Shielding Film
[0053] To reflect electromagnetic wave noise transmitting the electromagnetic-wave-absorbing magnetic film 1 and project it to the electromagnetic-wave-absorbing magnetic film 1 again, the electromagnetic-wave-shielding film 2 should have a function of reflecting electromagnetic wave noise. To exhibit such function effectively, the electromagnetic-wave-shielding film 2 is preferably a conductive metal foil, a plastic film having a thin conductive metal film or coating, or a carbon sheet. The electromagnetic-wave-absorbing magnetic film 1 and the electromagnetic-wave-shielding film 2 are preferably laminated via a non-conductive adhesive, which may be a known one.
[0054] (1) Conductive Metal Foil
[0055] The conductive metal is preferably at least one selected from the group consisting of aluminum, copper, silver, tin, nickel, cobalt, chromium, and their alloys. The conductive metal foil is preferably as thick as 5-50 m.
[0056] (2) Thin Conductive Metal Film or Coating
[0057] The thin conductive metal film is preferably a vapor-deposited film of the above conductive metal. The vapor-deposited metal film may be as thick as several tens of nanometers to several tens of micrometers. The plastic film, on which a vapor-deposited film of the above conductive metal is formed, is not particularly restrictive as long as they have sufficient strength, flexibility and workability in addition to insulation, and it may be made of, for instance, polyesters (polyethylene terephthalate, etc.), polyarylene sulfide (polyphenylene sulfide, etc.), polyamides, polyimides, polyamideimides, polyether sulfone, polyetheretherketone, polycarbonates, acrylic resins, polystyrenes, polyolefins (polyethylene, polypropylene, etc.), etc. From the aspect of strength and cost, polyethylene terephthalate (PET) is preferable. The thickness of the plastic film may be about 8-30 m.
[0058] (3) Conductive Metal Coating
[0059] The conductive metal coating can be formed by coating a plastic film with an ink (paste) comprising conductive metal powder such as silver powder, etc. highly dispersed in a thermoplastic or photocuring resin, drying the resultant coating, and then irradiating the coating with ultraviolet rays, if necessary. The conductive ink (paste) may be a known one, for example, a photocuring, conductive ink composition (JP 2016-14111 A) comprising a conductive filler, a photoinitiator, and a polymer dispersant, the percentage of the conductive filler being 70-90% by mass; and the conductive filler being silver powder having a particle size D.sub.50 of 0.3-3.0 m, 50% or more by mass of which is in a scale, foil or flake shape. The plastic film on which the conductive metal is coated may be the same as the plastic film on which the thin conductive metal film is deposited.
[0060] (4) Carbon Sheet
[0061] The carbon sheet used as the electromagnetic-wave-shielding film may be a commercially available PGS (registered trademark) graphite sheet (available from Panasonic Corporation) formed by heat-treating a polyimide film at an ultrahigh temperature in an inert gas, a carbon sheet (heat dissipation sheet) comprising graphite powder and carbon black, etc.
[0062] Usable as a carbon sheet of graphite powder/carbon black is a heat dissipation sheet (JP 2015-170660 A) having a structure in which carbon black is uniformly dispersed among fine graphite particles, with a mass ratio of fine graphite particles/carbon black of 75/25-95/5, a density of 1.9 g/cm.sup.3 or more, and an in-plane thermal conductivity of 570 W/mK or more. The fine graphite particles preferably have an average diameter of 5-100 m and an average thickness of 200 nm or more. This heat dissipation sheet is preferably as thick as 25-250 m.
[0063] This heat dissipation sheet can be formed by a method comprising (1) preparing a dispersion containing 5-25% by mass in total of fine graphite particles and carbon black, and 0.05-2.5% by mass of a binder resin in an organic solvent, a mass ratio of the fine graphite particles to the carbon black being 75/25-95/5; (2) repeating a step of applying the dispersion to a surface of a support plate and a drying step plural times, to form a resin-containing composite sheet comprising the fine graphite particles, the carbon black, and the binder resin; (3) burning the resin-containing composite sheet to remove the binder resin; and (4) pressing the resultant composite sheet of fine graphite particles/carbon black for densification.
[0064] [3] Arrangement of Electromagnetic-Wave-Absorbing Magnetic Film and Electromagnetic-Wave-Shielding Film
[0065] (1) Area Ratio
[0066] An area ratio of the electromagnetic-wave-shielding film 2 to the electromagnetic-wave-absorbing magnetic film 1 is 10-80%. When the area ratio is less than 10% or more than 80%, the absorbability of electromagnetic wave noise in a desired frequency range is not sufficiently maximized. This is an unexpected result, and it is an important feature of the present invention that the area ratio of the electromagnetic-wave-shielding film 2 to the electromagnetic-wave-absorbing magnetic film 1 is 10-80%. The lower limit of the area ratio is preferably 20%, more preferably 30%, further preferably 40%, most preferably 45%. The upper limit of the area ratio is preferably 70%, more preferably 65%, most preferably 60%. The area ratio range of the electromagnetic-wave-shielding film 2 to the electromagnetic-wave-absorbing magnetic film 1 is, for example, preferably 20-80%, more preferably 30-70%, further preferably 40-65%, most preferably 45-60%.
[0067] (2) Position
[0068] A center of the electromagnetic-wave-shielding film 2 is preferably positioned at a center of the electromagnetic-wave-absorbing magnetic film 1, but it may be deviated to change a frequency at which the electromagnetic wave absorbability has a peak. The position change of the electromagnetic-wave-shielding film 2 may be conducted by shifting the electromagnetic-wave-shielding film 2 in one direction relative to the electromagnetic-wave-absorbing magnetic film 1 as shown in
[0069] The present invention will be explained in more detail referring to Examples below without intention of restricting the present invention thereto.
EXAMPLE 1
[0070] Each of electromagnetic-wave-absorbing magnetic film pieces 1 of 50 mm50 mm were cut out of a commercially available noise absorption sheet (NOISEFUSEGU 10S, WW-GM10-S available from Wide Work Corporation, thickness: 1 mm) was laminated with each of aluminum foil pieces (thickness: 15 m) 2 having sizes of L (10 mm, 20 mm, 25 mm, 30 mm, 40 mm, and 50 mm)50 mm via a non-conductive adhesive, to produce Samples 1-6. In each Sample, a center of the aluminum foil piece 2 was aligned with a center of the electromagnetic-wave-absorbing magnetic film piece 1.
[0071] Using a system comprising a microstripline MSL (64.4 mm4.4 mm) of 50, an insulation substrate 300 supporting the microstripline MSL, a grounded electrode 301 attached to a lower surface of the insulation substrate 300, conductor pins 302, 302 connected to both ends of the microstripline MSL, a network analyzer NA, and coaxial cables 303, 303 connecting the network analyzer NA to the conductor pins 302, 302 as shown in
[0072] Power loss P.sub.loss was determined by subtracting the reflected wave power S.sub.11 and the transmitted wave power S.sub.12 from the incident power P.sub.in input to the system shown in
TABLE-US-00001 TABLE 1 Aluminum Foil Maximum Noise Piece Absorption Sample L Area Ratio .sup.(1) Frequency No. (mm) (%) P.sub.loss/P.sub.in (GHz) 1 10 20 0.96 3.4-3.8 2 20 40 0.98 4.2 3 25 50 0.96 4.4 4 30 60 0.92 3.7-4.3 5 40 80 0.98 3.5 6* 50 100 0.99 4.3 Note: .sup.(1) An area ratio of the aluminum foil piece to the electromagnetic-wave-absorbing magnetic film piece. Sample with * is Comparative Example.
[0073] In Sample 6 having an electromagnetic-wave-absorbing magnetic film piece on which an aluminum foil piece of the same size was laminated, the noise absorption ratio P.sub.loss/P.sub.in was low as a whole, despite a high maximum noise absorption ratio P.sub.loss/P.sub.in at limited frequencies. On the other hand, in Samples 1-5 each having an aluminum foil piece with an area ratio of 20-80% laminated on the electromagnetic-wave-absorbing magnetic film piece, the maximum noise absorption ratios P.sub.loss/P.sub.in were as high as 0.92-1.00, and frequencies at them were around 3 GHz. It is thus clear that to maximize the noise absorption ratio P.sub.loss/P.sub.in in a frequency range near 3 GHz, the area ratio of the aluminum foil piece (electromagnetic-wave-shielding film) to the electromagnetic-wave-absorbing magnetic film piece should be in a range of 10-80%, and is preferably in a range of 20-80%.
EXAMPLE 2
[0074] An aluminum foil piece (thickness: 15 m) of 25 mm50 mm was laminated via a non-conductive adhesive on the electromagnetic-wave-absorbing magnetic film piece of 50 mm50 mm used in Example 1, such that the distance D between one side X.sub.1 of the electromagnetic-wave-absorbing magnetic film piece and one side X.sub.2 (parallel to X.sub.1) of the aluminum foil piece was 0 mm, 5 mm, 10 mm, 15 mm, and 20 mm, respectively, as shown in
TABLE-US-00002 TABLE 2 Sample D .sup.(1) P.sub.loss/P.sub.in Maximum P.sub.loss/P.sub.in No. (mm) at 2 GHz (GHz) 11 0 0.43 0.99 (4.5) 12 5 0.57 0.94 (3.8-4.1) 13 10 0.69 0.93 (4.5) 14 15 0.70 0.95 (4.2-4.6) 15 20 0.66 0.96 (3.9) Note: .sup.(1) D represents the distance between one side X.sub.1 of the electromagnetic-wave-absorbing magnetic film piece and one side X.sub.2 of the aluminum foil piece.
[0075] As is clear from
EXAMPLE 3
[0076] As shown in
[0077] As is clear from
EXAMPLE 4
[0078] A square electromagnetic-wave-absorbing composite sheet as large as an IC chip in Fire Stick TV of Amazon, which had the same structure as in Example 1, was produced. A rectangular aluminum foil piece had an area ratio of 50% to the electromagnetic-wave-absorbing magnetic film piece. One pair of opposing sides of the aluminum foil piece were aligned with one pair of opposing sides of the electromagnetic-wave-absorbing magnetic film piece, and a center of the laminated aluminum foil piece was aligned with a center of the electromagnetic-wave-absorbing magnetic film piece. Namely, the electromagnetic-wave-absorbing composite sheet of Example 4 had the shape shown in
[0079] With a cover removed from the Fire Stick TV, the electromagnetic-wave-absorbing composite sheet of Example 4 was placed on the IC chip in the Fire Stick TV, to measure electromagnetic wave noise leaking from the Fire Stick TV by a spectrum analyzer VSA6G2A available from Keisoku Giken Co., Ltd. The results are shown in
[0080] Though electromagnetic-wave-absorbing composite sheets having aluminum foils laminated as electromagnetic-wave-shielding films on electromagnetic-wave-absorbing magnetic films are used in Examples above, the present invention is not restricted to these electromagnetic-wave-absorbing composite sheets, but may be modified within its scope. In addition to the aluminum foil, a copper foil, and coatings of conductive inks containing dispersed powder of aluminum, copper, silver, etc. are also usable as the electromagnetic-wave-shielding film.
EFFECTS OF THE INVENTION
[0081] The electromagnetic-wave-absorbing composite sheet of the present invention having the above structure has excellent electromagnetic wave absorbability, and can maximize electromagnetic wave noise absorbability in a desired frequency range by changing an area ratio of an electromagnetic-wave-shielding film to an electromagnetic-wave-absorbing film within a range of 10-80%.
