Anti-static woven fabric and flexible bulk container

摘要

A method of making an ungrounded type flexible fabric container with a reduced energy of electrostatic discharge for use in a combustible environment is provided. A woven fabric is configured to form a flexible fabric container having sidewalls, a closed end and an open end. The woven fabric made as from a static dissipating fabric comprising fabric woven of non-conductive tapes, to which a plurality of conductive staple fibers are woven into or coated onto the fabric at a spacing of from 3 mm to 100 mm.
