Abstract

Tin-lead (60Sn-40Pb) flake polyether sulfone (PES) composites in which the flakes were partially interconnected and of average thickness 2 μm were prepared by hot pressing molten Sn-Pb particles in a matrix of PES at a temperature above the melting temperature (Tm) of Sn-Pb but between Tm and Tg of PES. Hot pressing at 240°C and 6.51 MPa resulted in a 15 vol.% Sn-Pb composite of lower electrical resistivity and higher electromagnetic interference shielding effectiveness than a PES composite containing 15 vol.% aluminum flakes that were not formed in-situ. The electrical properties of the in-situ PES/Sn-Pb flake composites were much better than those of PES/Sn-Pb particle composites that were fabricated by hot pressing at 310°C (above the melting temperature of PES), though the mechanical properties were not as good.
