Robust Conductive Textiles, ready for Rough Conditions!
Robust Conductive Textiles, ready for rough conditions! Conductive textiles have long been used in excellent RF Shielding applications. The difficulty has always been that these conductive textiles are delicate, thin and tear easily. Seaman Corporation from Wooster, Ohio has continuously manufactured durable high performance coated textiles for decades. These coated textiles are used for roofing solutions, architectural structures, tents and tarps for the military, and Geomembranes. The marriage of Conductive Textiles and a Ruggedized Coating to protect them seemed like...

Shielded Clothing, Comfortable and Protective!
Shielded Clothing, Comfortable and Protective! As winter arrives, comfortable clothing is important! Shop VTT is selling a new line of loungewear. This loungewear has a good feel against the skin, both warm and soft. The presence of silver in the fabric is very important. Silver is the most thermally conductive element. This clothing will eliminate "hot spots" and "cold spots". Silver distributes the natural heat of the body over the whole garment. This electrically conductive fabric increases circulation in the...

Conductive Yarns Sewability Assessment, Shieldex Collaborates in NC State Study!
North Carolina State University is Conducting a Sewability Assessment of conductive yarns. New conductive yarns and threads are currently being processed with new materials and technology. Sewing and Embroidery using them offers unrestricted pattern-ability. Sewing allows conductive patterns that are curved and even sharply angled to be used. Most conductive yarns are advertised for their potential electrical performance. The actual electrical performance can only be determined once the yarn has actually been sewn! Some yarns are affected by the sewing...

Need Conductive Embroidery Yarns? We have the ones you Want!
Need Conductive Embroidery Yarns? We have the ones you Want! Conductive Yarns and Threads have replaced metal wires in Smart Clothes! It only makes sense, clothes are made of textiles, not wires. Metal wires will ultimately develop stress fractures from repeated flexing. These stress fractures will result in circuit failure. Conductive yarns are plated with metal, making them conductive! These conductive threads are able to flex with the clothing. This makes them more comfortable to the wearer than wires. The...

A SCIF Stops Eavesdropping!
A SCIF Stops Eavesdropping! A SCIF Stops Eavesdropping! What is a SCIF? A SCIF (Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility) is a system that completely prevents outside surveillance, spying or eavesdropping. SCIFs allow sensitive information to be viewed and discussed securely. You may think that this condition exists behind closed doors. Not so! Ask any criminal spending time in prison due to legal eavesdropping about it! Legal and illegal eavesdropping often involve sophisticated microphones that transmit conversations. These sensitive conversations are transmitted by...

RF Shielding Curtains Provide Security, Separation, and Privacy!
RF Shielding Curtains Provide Security, Separation, and Privacy! RF Shielding Curtains provide a reduced ambient environment needed in many different situations. Their uses include medical facilities, assembly line testing stations, isolation of warehouse RF Sensors, and even architectural shielding! They also reduce cross talk between adjacent testing stations, maintaining RF security, and data integrity. These curtains allow in situ aerospace and automotive EMC testing to be accomplished in the low ambient environment required for this type of testing. RF Shielding Curtains...
