Multifunctional polymer composites with anisotropic properties are attractinginterests as they fulfil the growing demand of multitasking materials. In thiswork, anisotropic polymer composites are fabricated by combining thelayer-by-layer (LBL) filtration method with the alternative assembling ofcarbon nanotubes (CNTs) and hexagonal boron nitride flakes (hBN) on naturalrubber latex particles (NR). The layered composites exhibit anisotropic thermaland electrical conductivities, which are tailored through the layerformulations. The best composite consists of four layers of NR modified with 8phr (parts per Hundred Rubber) CNTs (~7.4 wt%) and four alternated layers with12 phr hBN (~10.7 wt%). The composites exhibit an electromagnetic interference(EMI) shielding effectiveness of 22.41+-0.14 dB mm-1 at 10.3 GHz and a thermalconductivity equal to 0.25 W/(mK). Furthermore, when the layered composite isused as an electrical thermal heater the surface reaches a stable temperatureof ~103 C in approx. 2 min, with an input bias of 2.5 V.
