PLASTICS MATERIALS AND ARTICLES CONTAINING ELECTRICALLY CONDUCTIVE FIBERS

摘要

Plastics materials and articles containing uniformly distributed electrically conductive fibres at very low concentrations are described together with specific intermediate plastics products useful in the manufacture of such materials and articles. The fibres have a low diameter-to-length ratio which enables the final plastics articles to be used as shielding against radio-frequency and high frequency electromagnetic radiation or for antistatic purposes. Methods of incorporating the conductive fibres into the plastics are also described.
