Engineered for
Static Dissipation and Control Solutions
|
|
 |
In commercial,
industrial, or service workplaces, static electricity can cause a
wide range of serious problems: explosions in grain facilities,
downtime in assembly areas, integrated circuit damage in computer
rooms- just to name a few. To reduce the danger and to avoid the
potentially costly damage associated with electrostatic discharge,
Shakespeare offers Resistat®
and Sanstat®
fibers. The extensive Resistat®
and Sanstat®
collection comprises carbon suffused nylon conductive fiber products
engineered to provide the most effective solutions to static
control. Our proprietary
manufacturing technology allows you to design carpet and brush
applications, plus knitted, woven, or non-woven textiles that
conduct static away from sensitive areas and prevent its
accumulation. |

Our
Patented Carbon Suffusion Process
Electrically conductive carbon particles become a structural part of
the fiber.
Unique and
patented, Shakespeare Conductive Fiber’s carbon suffusion process
chemically saturates the outer skin of nylon fiber with electrically
conductive carbon particles. The carbon becomes part of the
structure of the fiber, which retains the strength and flexibility
of the nylon while maintaining excellent conductivity. These
characteristics make it ideal for mechanical, chemical, and thermal
manufacturing processes.

Our Resistat®
and Sanstat®
carbon suffused products range in resistivity from 103
to 108 ohms per centimeter, depending on denier and
filament count. This conductive fiber controls
electrostatic discharge and conducts low voltage currents
without posing the hazard of electric shock.
Our unique suffusion
process produces a fiber with a durable, conductive sheath that will
not crack, flake, or lose its conductivity during flexing or
extension. Carbon suffused fibers are available as
monofilaments, multifilament yarns, tow, staple, and
supported yarn configurations. |
