Noise dampening energy efficient tape and gasket material

Abstract

A noise dampening tape and gasket material for reducing or preventing unwanted electromagnetic interference from escaping or entering an enclosure. The noise dampening gasket includes an inner core section, a carbon material layer surrounding the inner core section, an insulating layer surrounding the carbon material layer, and a metal shield layer surrounding the insulating layer. The noise dampening tape includes a metal shield layer, an insulating layer adjacent to and in contact with the metal shield layer, a carbon material layer adjacent to and in contact with the insulating layer, and an adhesive layer disposed on a surface of the carbon material layer. A second adhesive layer can be disposed on a surface of the metal shield layer. The carbon fibers can be coated with silicone or polytetrafluoroethylene to enhance mechanical and electrical properties of the carbon material layer.
