Abstract

An electromagnetic wave shielding wallpaper is described. The wallpaper includes a conductive layer having a base material and a conductive material, and an adhesive layer. The wallpaper may include a protective layer disposed on a first side of the conductive layer, a fire retardant layer disposed on a second side of the conductive layer, and the adhesive layer disposed on the fire retardant layer.

Claims (49)

1. A wallpaper, comprising:

an adhesive layer;

a conductive layer having a base material and a conductive material;

a protective layer, wherein the protective layer is disposed on the conductive layer; and

a fire retardant layer disposed between the conductive layer and the adhesive layer, wherein the fire retardant layer includes fire retardant material selected from a group consisting of aluminum hydroxide, borates, hydrates, an organohalogen material, and an organophosphorus material, wherein the protective layer includes a protective material selected from a group consisting of thermoplastic polyurethane, polypropylene, polyethylene, nylon 6, nylon 66, ethylene (meth) acrylic acid, and silicone.

2. The wallpaper of claim 1 , wherein the conductive material is selected from a group consisting of conductive polymers, metals, alloys, carbon, and metal oxides.

3. The wallpaper of claim 1 , wherein the adhesive layer includes an adhesive material selected from a group consisting of acrylic, rubber cement, polyurethane, epoxy, and silicone based adhesives.

4. A wallpaper, comprising:

an adhesive layer;

a conductive layer having a base material and a conductive material; and

a fire retardant layer disposed between the conductive layer and the adhesive layer, wherein the fire retardant layer includes fire retardant material selected from a group consisting of aluminum hydroxide, borates, hydrates, an organohalogen material, and an organophosphorus material, wherein the base material is selected from a group consisting of nylon 6, nylon 66, polyester, polyethylene, polyurethane, and carbon fiber.

5. The wallpaper of claim 4 , wherein the conductive material is selected from a group consisting of conductive polymers, metals, alloys, carbon, and metal oxides.

6. The wallpaper of claim 4 further comprising a protective layer, wherein the protective layer is disposed on the conductive layer.

7. The wallpaper of claim 4 , wherein the adhesive layer includes an adhesive material selected from a group consisting of acrylic, rubber cement, polyurethane, epoxy, and silicone based adhesives.

8. A wallpaper, comprising:

an adhesive layer;

a conductive layer having a base material and a conductive material; and

a fire retardant layer disposed between the conductive layer and the adhesive layer, wherein the fire retardant layer includes fire retardant material selected from a group consisting of aluminum hydroxide, borates, hydrates, an organohalogen material, and an organophosphorus material, wherein the conductive material is silver, and the conductive layer is plated with nickel.

9. The wallpaper of claim 8 , wherein the adhesive layer includes an adhesive material selected from a group consisting of acrylic, rubber cement, polyurethane, epoxy, and silicone based adhesives.

10. The wallpaper of claim 8 further comprising a protective layer, wherein the protective layer is disposed on the conductive layer.

11. The wallpaper of claim 8 , wherein the conductive material is selected from a group consisting of conductive polymers, metals, alloys, carbon, and metal oxides.

12. A shielding wallpaper, comprising:

a conductive layer having a base material and a conductive material;

a protective layer disposed on a first side of the conductive layer;

a fire retardant layer disposed on a second side of the conductive layer, wherein the fire retardant layer includes fire retardant material selected from a group consisting of aluminum hydroxide, borates, hydrates, an organohalogen material, and an organophosphorus material; and

an adhesive layer disposed on the fire retardant layer, wherein the base material is selected from a group consisting of nylon 6, nylon 66, polyester, polyethylene, polyurethane, and carbon fiber.

13. The shielding wallpaper of claim 12 , wherein the conductive material is selected from a group consisting of conductive polymers, metals, alloys, carbon, and metal oxides.

14. The shielding wallpaper of claim 12 , further comprising a liner disposed on the adhesive layer.

15. The shielding wallpaper of claim 12 , wherein the conductive layer is calendered through a first roller and a second roller.

16. The shielding wallpaper of claim 12 , wherein the shielding wallpaper is between 0.001 to 0.25 inches thick.

17. A shielding wallpaper, comprising:

a conductive layer having a base material and a conductive material;

a protective layer disposed on a first side of the conductive layer;

a fire retardant layer disposed on a second side of the conductive layer, wherein the fire retardant layer includes fire retardant material selected from a group consisting of aluminum hydroxide, borates, hydrates, an organohalogen material, and an organophosphorus material; and

an adhesive layer disposed on the fire retardant layer, wherein the protective layer includes a protective material selected from a group consisting of thermoplastic urethane, polypropylene, polyethylene, nylon 6, nylon 66, ethylene (meth) acrylic acid, and silicone.

18. The shielding wallpaper of claim 17 , wherein the conductive layer is calendered through a first roller and a second roller.

19. The shielding wallpaper of claim 17 , wherein the shielding wallpaper is between 0.001 to 0.25 inches thick.

20. The shielding wallpaper of claim 17 , wherein the conductive material is selected from a group consisting of conductive polymers, metals, alloys, carbon, and metal oxides.

21. The shielding wallpaper of claim 17 , further comprising a liner disposed on the adhesive layer.

22. A method of forming a wallpaper, comprising:

providing an adhesive layer;

providing a conductive layer having a base material and a conductive material;

disposing a fire retardant layer between the conductive layer and the adhesive layer, wherein the fire retardant layer includes fire retardant material selected from a group consisting of aluminum hydroxide, borates, hydrates, an organohalogen material, and an organophosphorus material; and

disposing a protective layer on the conductive layer, wherein the protective layer includes a protective material selected from a group consisting of thermoplastic polyurethane, polypropylene, polyethylene, nylon 6, nylon 66, ethylene (meth) acrylic acid, and silicone.

23. A method of forming a wallpaper, comprising:

providing an adhesive layer;

providing a conductive layer having a base material and a conductive material;

disposing a fire retardant layer between the conductive layer and the adhesive layer, wherein the fire retardant layer includes fire retardant material selected from a group consisting of aluminum hydroxide, borates, hydrates, an organohalogen material, and an organophosphorus material, wherein the conductive layer is calendared and the conductive layer is plated with nickel after the conductive layer has been calendered.

24. The method of claim 23 further comprising disposing a protective layer on the conductive layer.
