Silver-plated single filaments achieve performance close to pure silver at relatively low cost, while overcoming the drawbacks of pure silver filaments, such as softness and insufficient mechanical strength.
Main Applications (leaning more towards high-end electronics and military fields compared to stainless steel microfibers)
Due to its unparalleled conductivity, the applications of silver-plated single filaments are concentrated in advanced fields requiring extremely high signal integrity and shielding effectiveness.
1.High-end Electromagnetic Shielding and Grounding
Conductive Fabrics/Textiles
-Military stealth suits/shielded tents: Used to make high-level electromagnetic shielding tents and protective clothing, protecting personnel and equipment from radar detection and electromagnetic pulse weapons.
- High-value instrument shielding covers/bags: Used for packaging and storing military or aerospace electronic components that are extremely sensitive to static electricity and electromagnetic interference.
- Ground wires: Used as highly efficient grounding materials in precision circuits or aerospace equipment.
2.Flexible Wires and Sensors Smart textiles/flexible electronics:
- Flexible circuits: Woven into fabrics as washable and bendable circuit connections for smart clothing
- Physiological sensors: Due to excellent conductivity and biocompatibility, used for weaving electrodes for ECG, EMG, and other physiological signal monitoring, providing signal quality far superior to stainless steel fibers.
- Micro-coils: Used in high-quality headphone voice coils, micro-speakers, etc., for maximum electro-acoustic conversion efficiency.
3.Conductive Plastics and Composites High-performance conductive plastics: Silver-plated single filaments (or shortened fibers) are mixed into engineering plastics to produce composites with excellent electromagnetic shielding effectiveness (EMI SE), used to shield electronic device enclosures (such as 5G base stations and server chassis), replacing traditional metal shields or conductive coatings.
- Anti-static materials: Used in environments with extremely high static protection requirements.
4. Other Special Applications- Metal fiber conductive adhesives: Extremely short silver-plated single filaments are used as conductive fillers to make anisotropic conductive adhesives for soldering and packaging of precision electronic components.- Aerospace cables: Used for special cables requiring lightweight and high reliability.
Silver wire can be used in fabric for protection against electrosmog (EMV), for electrostatic discharge (ESD) as well as data transmission in clothes. In addition, metal has a unique optical component, which makes it very interesting for use in fashion and decorations, e.g. for clothes, jewelry and decoration elements.
Fabric against electrosmog
In today's world, people are increasingly concerned about electrosmog. Fabric containing our textile wires offer excellent protection against electromagnetic radiation. In the frequency range of mobile communication,for example,protection values of approx. 40 dB (99%) can be achieved.
ESD applications
Electrostatic charge can be prevented by using conductive materials, Silver monofilaments is highly conductive can be used in fabric for protection against electrosmog (EMV), for electrostatic discharge (ESD).
