Abstract The demand for electromagnetic shielding has recently increased in specific domains, such as in military facilities,power transmission, and hospitals. To address this need, while promoting by-product recycling and cost efficiency, this studydeveloped a solid-state carbon capsule to enhance dispersibility in concrete. The capsule was produced using carbon-basedby-products, such as carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and cathode materials generated in the lithium secondary battery industry. Theheating performance of mortar blended with solid-state carbon capsules was evaluated, revealing that when 23 % of the capsuleswere incorporated, the surface temperature rose by more than 60 °C within 20 minutes and by 30 °C within about 16 minutes frominitial temperature. This indicated the formation of an effective electrical network. Through the electromagnetic shieldingperformance tests of concrete blended with solid-state carbon capsules, it was found that the electromagnetic shielding performanceimproved as the proportion of solid-state carbon capsules increased. Notably, when 30 % of the capsules were incorporated, theshielding effectiveness exceeded 60 dB.
