An efficient electromagnetic shielding composite based on multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs)-filled styrene acrylic emulsion-based polymer has been prepared in a water-based system. The MWCNTs were demonstrated to have an effect on the dielectric constants, which effectively enhance electromagnetic shielding efficiency (SE) of the composites. A low conductivity threshold of 0.23 wt% can be obtained. An EMI SE of similar to 28 dB was achieved for 20 wt% MWCNTs. The AC conductivity (sigma(ac)) of the composites, deduced from imaginary permittivity, was used to estimate the SE of the composites in X band (8.2-12.4 GHz), showing a good agreement with the measured results.
