Silver is the best (but very expensive), then copper (still pretty expensive) and then aluminum. Heavy duty foil can be used if you double or triple layer it. I have heard you can purchase copper foil, but I don't know where or how much it costs.

What is a faraday cage?
A Faraday cage is an enclosure used to block electromagnetic fields. A Faraday cage can be formed with a continuous mesh covering of conductive material. Faraday cages are named after scientist Michael Faraday, who invented them in 1836.
A strong electric field exists in the vinicity of the faraday cage why the person inside the cage is not affected?
That's because there is no electric field inside the cage.
Can a sea shipping container be made into a Faraday cage?
Absolutely - provided that the person inside is insulated from the floor !
How can you make a Faraday Cage to block all cell phone connections with cheap materials?
Wrap your phone in foil. If you use a mylar bag it is eaisier to get to when you want to use it and it is lighter.
What is electrostatics shielding?
Electrostatic shielding is a barrier that isolates things inside it from an external electric field, or vice versa. Some might call that electrostatic shield a Faraday cage.

Was anything named after Michael Faraday?
The Faraday cage was invented and named after Michael Faraday.
Where is the Best place to be when its lightning?
Any Faraday cage would be safe, e.g. a car.
What did Micheal Faraday discovered?
He discovered Faraday's law of induction, electrochemistry, Faraday effect, Faraday cage, Faraday constant, Faraday cup, Faraday's laws of electrolysis, Faraday's paradox, Faraday rota, Faraday efficiency effect, Faraday wave, and lines of force.
How long does a faraday cage work?
A Faraday cage works by conducting electricity around the outside of the cage. This causes anything inside the cage to be safe from the electrical charge.
What actors and actresses appeared in La cage de Faraday - 2010?
The cast of La cage de Faraday - 2010 includes: Alain Floret as Man
What are the uses of Faraday's Cage?
Prevent radio interference.
What are a type of Faraday Cage?
Static shielding bags
What is any device that protects against an electromagnetic field?
Faraday cage.
How does Faraday's cage work?
Basically a "Faraday cage" is a grounded, metal box. By being grounded radio waves can neither enter nor leave. And because the wavelength of radio waves are relatively long, you can make the cage from metal mesh instead of a solid.
A strong electric field exists in the vinicity of the faraday cage why the person inside the cage is not affected?
That's because there is no electric field inside the cage.
How do we block TV and cellphone radiation?
You can create a Faraday Cage with aluminum foil.
