Abstract

New electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding pigments based on silver coated carrier pigments are disclosed which have a wider activity spectrum and are more economically available than previously known shielding pigments. The carrier pigments used are platelet shaped, ferro- or ferrimagnetic, Fe-containing, naturally occurring or synthetically produced laminar minerals. The Ag coating amounts to 5 to 25% by weight, based on the carrier pigment. Shielding pigments, which may be prepared by conventional chemical deposition of Ag or by sputtering, may be used for the production of EMI protective coatings and EMI protective films.
