Increase in Electromagnetic Radiation from Electronic Components & the Need to Comply with Stringent EMC Regulations to Support Demand for EMI/RFI Shielding Materials & Technologies
Risk of electromagnetic pollution caused by the increasing proliferation of electronic equipment in various industries especially the automobile sector and the subsequent need to protect equipment from unwanted radio-frequency interference is poised to drive the global market for EMI and RFI Shielding Materials and Technologies to reach US$9.1 billion by 2024 . The need to comply with strict environmental and EMC regulations is also driving growth in the market. Electromagnetic interference (EMI), also termed radio frequency interference (RFI) when referring to interference in RF spectrum, is described as a disturbance caused by an external source, which affects the electrical circuit by conduction, electromagnetic induction or electrostatic coupling. With electronic systems becoming increasingly complex, the risk of EMI radiation signals that can cause degradation, malfunction or interference of equipment continues to grow. Due to the health risk to humans caused by electromagn...
