EMI shielding laminate and method of making same

Abstract

A laminate having electromagnetic shielding properties, said laminate including two or more layers adhered together with resin under application of heat and pressure, wherein at least one of said layers includes a substrate having deposited thereon a metal-containing coating. The invention is also a method of manufacturing a laminate having electromagnetic shielding properties including the steps: (a) depositing a metal-containing coating onto a substrate to form a metal coated substrate, (b) incorporating said metal coated substrate into a laminate assembly having 10 at least one other layer, (c) adhering said metal coated substrate to said at least one other layer using a curable resin to form an adhered laminate assembly, and (d) subjecting said adhered laminate assembly to heat and pressure to cure said resin and thereby form said laminate.
