  • Electrically conductive strands, fabrics produced therefrom and use thereof
    Patent number: 7825174
    Abstract: Described are melt-spun strands having a modulus of elasticity of from 8 to 14 GPa and an elastic extension of up to 1.5%, comprising a) a thermoplastic polyester, b) a thermoplastic elastomeric block copolymer, and c) carbon black and/or graphite particles in the form of aggregates aligned along the longitudinal axis of the strand which form electrically conductive paths along the longitudinal axis of the strand. The strands exhibit very high electrical conductivity and are useful for forming screens, wires, sieves or other technical/industrial wovens.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 21, 2008
    Date of Patent: November 2, 2010
