  • Carbon flocked tape
    Patent number: 10875624
    Abstract: Arrangements related to carbon flocked tape are described. The flocked tape can include a first adhesive, a substrate, a second adhesive, and a plurality of fibers. The substrate can be formed from any suitable metal, polymer, and/or natural material. The fibers can be formed from milled recycled carbon fibers. The carbon fibers can be connected within the tape via an electrostatic flocking process. The flocked tape can allow for application, removal, and re-application. The carbon flocked tape can provide several benefits, such as electric and/or thermal conductivity, noise and vibration reduction, insulation and shielding, and altered fluid dynamics.
