service offering functional fibres Electrical conductive fibres   back
 Electrical conductive lyocell-fibres    


Fibres for electrically conductive fabrics and antistatic materials

  • Reproducibility of electrical properties
  • Long-term stability
  • Continuously variable adjustment of electrical resistance, enabling regulation of the functional effect
  • Good textile processing capability with conventional textile technologies
  • Environmental friendly (manufactured from renewable resources in a closed material cycle)
  • Cellulosic matrix offers dimensional stability and flexibility at high temperatures (up to 100 degrees Celsius)


Application fields

  • Antistatic textiles and plastics
    • Protective clothing
    • Carpets
    • Grounding components
    • Explosion protection


  • Heating textiles and heating plastics
    • Ensures homogeneous heat distribution and uniform heat dissipation across the entire surface to be heated (no hot spots)


  • Humidity sensors

    Detection of:
    • Water in gaseous media (humidity)
    • Liquids (emergency breakdown circuits in tank and conduit systems)
    • Water in solids (residual moisture in concrete and floor screed)
    • Water in liquids (presence of water in alcohol)
