- Distribution and antistatic properties of stainless steel filaments in fabrics
The frictional electrostatic pressure of carbon black conductive yarn fabric is lower than that of stainless steel filament fabric.
Stainless steel filament and polyester network filament are twisted and interwoven into fabrics, so that stainless steel filament can be exposed on the surface of the fabrics, thus the antistatic properties of the fabrics are greatly improved.
- Configuration, Spacing and Antistatic Property of Conductive Yarn in Fabrics
There are three kinds of configuration of conductive yarn in fabric: weft, warp and mesh.
(1) When conductive yarn is woven, the friction and electrostatic pressure of the fabric is reduced, and the antistatic property is improved.
(2) The frictional static pressure of the fabric decreases with the decrease of the distance between conductive yarns (i.e. the increase of the content of conductive yarns), and the antistatic property of the fabric increases.
(3) When the spacing of conductive yarns is equal, the friction and electrostatic pressure of different basic fabrics varies. The lower the mass specific resistance of the main material, the better the antistatic performance, and vice versa, the worse the antistatic performance.
(4) The frictional static pressure of the fabric with conductive yarn net configuration is lower than that of the fabric with conductive yarn warp or weft configuration, but the amount of conductive yarn is about twice that of the fabric with conductive yarn warp or weft configuration, and the weaving complexity increases. Therefore, the appropriate configuration of conductive yarn should be selected according to the cost-performance ratio.
