INTRINSICALLY CONDUCTIVE THERMOPLASTIC COMPOSITION AND COMPOUNDING PROCESSING FOR MAKING CONDUCTIVE FIBER

摘要

A conductive thermoplastic composition capable of forming conductive fibers including monofilaments, methods of making these compositions, and fibers including these compositions. The conductive thermoplastic compositions may be formed using any method capable of forming the compositions into fibers. The fibers are substantially smooth and/or are capable of being woven into fabrics or other articles to provide conductive properties to the fabric or article. These fibers provide effective static charge dissipation that may be imparted into applications such conveying belts or protective clothing for clean room operation.
