Statex Shieldex - silver coated nylon yarns, flock and fibers - Swicofil

Statex Shieldex products are used for the following:
 

• medical
  For DTL-electrodes, Statex silver-coated yarn is suitable to record retinal potentials from the cornea. 
   
• EMI/RFI shielding
  Silver provides excellent conductivity that yields both Electromagnetic Shielding (EMI shielding) and Radio Frequency Shielding (RFI) shielding. Applications using Statex fabrics, fibers and yarn include fabric-over-foam gaskets, cable shielding, conductive tapes, filters, flexible shielded enclosures and packing material. 
   
• anti-static
  Statex plated fibers, yarns and fabrics allow for static discharge when incorporated into antistatic carpet systems, clothing as well as clean room and medical clinic environments.
   
• radar and infra red
  When used in products manufactured to military standards, Statex fabrics prevent detection by infrared and radar. Application include protection clothing, tents, radar reflection and radiating antenna.

Silver plated polyamide yarns can be used just like non-coated yarns for twisting, warp- and weft-knitting, embroidering, weaving and spinning.

They are used among many other things as a conductor in sensors, for the manufacture of clothing and home textiles as well as smart textiles. Shieldex ® silver yarns are available as monofilament, multifilament and twisted yarns.
