A New Method for Evaluating Electrical Resistivity of Textile Assemblies

摘要

A new multiple-step method for measuring the electrical resistance of textile assemblies is proposed that takes the compressional properties of the assembly into consideration. A new parameter is introduced to describe the electrical resistivity of textile materials as the limit resistivity of a compressed fiber assembly. This new definition approaches the measured resistance of the textile assembly as something similar to the volume resistivity of a rigid homogeneous material. Experiments with different kinds of fiber assemblies clearly show that the electrical resistivity so defined is an inherent characteristic reflecting the electrical properties of fiber material and is independent of sample form (fabric, yarn, and fiber).
