[Technical Field of the Invention] The present invention relates to a method for producing an electromagnetic shielding molded article using an electromagnetic shielding composition containing a conductive filler. [Technical Background of the Invention] For the purpose of shielding electromagnetic waves generated from digital electronic devices and the like, electronic circuits of these electronic devices are surrounded by a case having an electromagnetic wave shielding effect. However, as for such cases, cases molded from electromagnetic shielding compositions mixed with conductive fillers such as metal powder, carbon powder, metal foil, metal fibers, and carbon fibers have conventionally been used.
It is widely used because of its excellent productivity, economy, and light weight. [Problems with the background technology] However, in such cases, the thermal expansion coefficient of the conductive filler is smaller than that of the base polymer, so the contact between the conductive fillers obtained during molding may separate due to temperature changes in the usage environment. There was a problem that this phenomenon occurred and the electromagnetic shielding effect deteriorated. Therefore, when such a case is used in an application where the usage environment changes, there is a problem of poor reliability. [Object of the Invention] The present invention has been made to address the above-mentioned problems, and provides high reliability that can maintain an excellent electromagnetic shielding effect no matter how the usage environment changes.
The purpose is to provide a method for manufacturing high-quality electromagnetic shielding molded products. [Summary of the Invention] That is, the method for producing an electromagnetic shielding molded article of the present invention involves forming an electromagnetic shielding composition into a predetermined shape using an electromagnetic shielding composition formed by mixing a conductive filler having a low melting point metal layer on the surface in a base polymer. The method is characterized in that the molded body is molded, and then electricity is applied to the molded body to melt the low melting point metal layer. As the base polymer of the electromagnetic shielding composition of the present invention, both thermoplastic resins and thermosetting resins can be used, such as polystyrene,
Styrenic resins such as ABS resins, polyethylene,
Examples include olefin resins such as polypropylene, polycarbonates, polyamides, polyesters, epoxy resins, and acrylic resins. In addition, conductive fillers include metal fibers such as copper, iron, nickel, aluminum, and stainless steel;
Suitable materials include glass fibers, carbon fibers, etc., with a low melting point metal layer formed on the surface. Suitable fibers have a diameter of about 5 to 100 μm, and solder is suitable as the low melting point metal. The conductive filler used in the present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned fibrous filler, but may also be used in the form of foil or fine particles depending on the application. The electromagnetic shielding composition used in the present invention can be obtained by uniformly dispersing the conductive filler described above and, if necessary, pigments and other additives in the polymer described above. The amount of conductive filler blended varies depending on the shape, size, etc. of the conductive filler used, but is usually 5.
Approximately 40% by weight is appropriate. FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a main part showing an example of the structure of such a conductive filler 1, in which a solder layer 1b is provided on the outer periphery of a metal fiber 1a. In the method of the present invention, the electromagnetic shielding composition described above is molded into a predetermined shape by, for example, injection molding, compression molding, casting, etc., and then a molded product as shown in FIG. An alternating current voltage is applied between the current-carrying terminals 3 inserted in advance at the time of molding 2, the solder layer is melted, and the fibers in contact with each other are integrally bonded by solder.
The optimum current to be applied varies depending on the size and blending amount of the conductive filler.
When applying a voltage with an electrode gap of 1 to 10 cm using a composition containing 5 to 40% by weight of 10 mm short fibers, conductivity can be improved by applying current at 2 to 20 V for 0.1 to 10 seconds. A low melting point metal such as solder on the surface of the filler is melted by heat generated by electricity, and the conductive fillers can be reliably bonded via this solder layer. Even after the electromagnetic shielding molded product manufactured in this way is installed in electronic equipment and used, the conductive filler will not separate due to changes in environmental temperature and conductivity will not be lost, and it will remain reliable for a long time. It has a highly effective electromagnetic shielding effect. Note that the electrode for energization may be provided with a tapping screw or the like after the molded product is molded. [Embodiments of the Invention] Next, embodiments will be described. Example An electromagnetic shielding composition was obtained by mixing 70% by weight of polystyrene and 30% by weight of a conductive filler which was soldered onto the outer periphery of stainless steel fibers having a diameter of 20 μm. Next, this composition was fed into an injection molding machine and integrally molded with eight current-carrying terminals that had been inserted into the mold in advance to produce an injection molded product having the same shape as the molded product shown in Figure 2. Obtained. The dimensions of this molded product are width 200mm and length 300mm.
mm, height 50mm, wall thickness 3mm. Next, a 15V current was passed between each terminal for 0.1 seconds to produce an electromagnetic shield molded product. Comparative Example As a comparative example, an electromagnetic shielding molded product was produced by injection molding in the same manner as in the example except that a stainless steel fiber with a diameter of 20 μm without a solder layer on the surface was used as the conductive filler. In this case, the electrodes were not buried and energized. Regarding the electromagnetic shielding molded products obtained in the above Examples and Comparative Examples, the heat resistance characteristics of the electromagnetic shielding effect were measured, and the results were as shown in the following table.

This eliminates the phenomenon of deterioration of electromagnetic shielding effectiveness over time caused by thermal changes in the usage environment, making it possible to maintain excellent electronic shielding properties over a long period of time regardless of the usage environment. Electromagnetic shielding molded products can be obtained.
