“…(Devaux et al, 2007;Knittel & Schollmeyer, 2009;Kuhn, Child, & Kimbrell, 1995). Use of metal wires or metal coating is a common practice for imparting electrical conductivity to textiles (Cheng, Lee, & Ramakrishna, 2001;Perumalraj & Dasaradan, 2011;Zhang, Tao, Wang, & Yu, 2005). Also, metal fibers were used during staple spinning to manufacture electro-conductive yarns (Knittel & Schollmeyer, 2009;Schwarz et al, 2011aSchwarz et al, , 2011b.…”

This work deals with the preparation and characterization of electrically conductive textiles for heat generation. Needlepunched nonwoven, spunlace nonwoven, and woven fabrics, all made of 100% polyester fibers, were made electrically conductive by in situ chemical polymerization of pyrrole with p-toluene sulfonic acid dopant. Alkali hydrolysis of polyester fabrics was done before in situ polymerization for better fixation of polypyrrole on polyester. The average surface resistivities were found to be 1013.08, 1099.72, and 1434.12 Ω/□, respectively, for needlepunched, spunlace, and woven fabrics. The electro-conductive fabrics displayed exponential rise of surface temperature on application of voltage and the rise of temperature was found to be related to the time duration of applied voltage. The electro-conductive fabrics exhibited linear voltage-current relationship at low voltage range. The surface resistivity of the electro-conductive fabrics was increased substantially on prolong exposure to atmosphere.

“…Studies about fabrics blended with metal fibers have been documented in the literatures. Cheng, Lee, Ramakrishna, and Ueng (2001) and Cheng, Lee, Ueng, and Mou (2002) proposed two methods to produce EM shielding fabrics. In the first method, they used a ringspinning system to produce blended yarns containing stainless steel (SS) staple yarns, and in the second, they incorporated copper (Cu) or SS wires as conductive fillers to form conductive open-end friction core-spun yarn.…”

In this paper, a kind of novel filaments/short fibers composite yarns containing stainless steel (SS) were produced by an innovative ring-spinning method. On the basis of the shielding mechanism of the electromagnetic (EM) shielding material, a method for fabricating a multifunctional SS composite fabric with EM shielding characteristics was successfully developed. Coaxial transmission line method was used to investigate the influences of different factors, such as radiant frequency, metal content, metal mesh size, and geometry, on electromagnetic shielding effectiveness (EMSE) of the composite fabrics in the frequency range of 15-3000 MHz. The notabilities of these factors were examined using analysis of variance (ANOVA). A regression model equation was setup using the above factors as variables, and verification of accuracy and practicability to this model was also carried out. The experimental results indicate that average EMSE of composite fabrics is 20.76-51.92 dB in the frequency of 15-3000 MHz, which indicates that the influence of the studied factors was considerable.

“…has been increased in the recent years due to their high potential applications in different fields [1,2]. Obtaining electrical conductivity in the textile materials by metal coating or incorporating metal wires into the textile materials are common practice [3][4][5]. Also, now-a-days metal fibers are used during staple spinning to manufacture electro-conductive yarns [6][7][8].…”
