Statex Shieldex silver coated nylon polyamide yarns, flock and fibers
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.

STATEX SHIELDEX YARNS

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.

Statex Shieldex yarns are available in a range of dtex 22 up to dtex 235.
