We developed several approaches by combining graphene, 2d materials (MXene, MoS2 etc) with other nanomaterials with specific laminar, hetero or other 3D architectures to achieve advanced electromagnetic, radiation (X-ray, gamma) and acoustic shielding performances.  This work is under development and involve collaboration with several research groups from other discipline and internationally.
