Abstract
Abstract The invention provides a novel gasket for electric shielding composed of an electrically insulating rubbery elastic material as the continuum or matrix and a conductive phase dispersed therein. Different from conventional gaskets for electric shielding in which conductive filaments or particles form the dispersed phase, the inventive gasket for electric shielding comprises flakes of a conductive material as the dispersed phase in the matrix and the flakes are in orientation in such a manner that the flat surfaces of them lie substantially perpendicularly to the contacting surfaces of the gasket. Owing to this unique internal structure, the inventive gasket for electric shielding is very efficient in absorbing the energy of the electric fields or electromagnetic waves.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
57 words
A gasket for electric shielding which comprises a flat member composed of a matrix made of an electrically insulating rubbery elastic material and flakes of an electrically conductive material dispersed in the matrix in such a manner that the flat surfaces of the flakes are substantially not in parallel with the contacting surfaces of the flat member.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
57 words
A gasket for electric shielding which comprises a flat member composed of a matrix made of an electrically insulating rubbery elastic material and flakes of an electrically conductive material dispersed in the matrix in such a manner that the flat surfaces of the flakes are substantially not in parallel with the contacting surfaces of the flat member.
Claim 3
Independent Claim
136 words
A method for the preparation of a gasket for electric shielding which comprises the steps of (a) admixing flakes of an electrically conductive material into an electrically insulating rubbery elastic material in a plastic condition to form a composite dispersion of the flakes in the rubbery elastic material as the matrix, (b) subjecting the thus obtained composite dispersion to shearing deformation on one direction so as that the flakes are oriented in the matrix to have the flat surfaces thereof substantially in parallel with the direction of the deformation, (c) hardening the rubbery elastic material in a plastic condition to fix the flakes as dispersed and oriented in the matrix, and (d) slicing the composite dispersion with the thus hardened rubbery elastic material in a plane substantially not in parallel with the direction of the deformation.
