A novel foam structure of carbon nanofiber–polymer composite (see Figure) with improved electrical conductivity and percolation behavior is reported. This foam structure is very promising for use as an effective electromagnetic‐interference shielding material owing to its light weight, electrical conduction, and easy processability.
