About
Preema C. Thomas is a materials scientist whose research focuses on sustainable electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding and advanced textile-based composites. Her most-cited work, "Electromagnetic Attenuation Performance of Sustainable e-Textile Derived from Polypyrrole Impregnated Jute Fabrics with Predominant Microwave Absorption" (2022, 7 citations), addresses the growing crisis of electromagnetic pollution by developing eco-friendly shielding materials from natural jute fibers. By impregnating jute with conductive polypyrrole, Thomas created an e-textile that achieves predominant microwave absorption, offering a biodegradable alternative to conventional metal-based shields. This work exemplifies her broader contributions to green electronics and functional textiles, where she integrates conductive polymers with renewable resources to combat EM pollution. Her research is particularly notable for its dual focus on environmental sustainability and high-performance shielding, providing a scalable solution for wearable electronics and smart textiles. With her innovative approach to merging natural fibers with conductive polymers, Thomas is advancing the field of sustainable electromagnetic materials, making her a rising voice in the effort to mitigate the health and environmental impacts of electronic waste and radiation.
