Composite fiber

Materials can now pmit data and information in real time, but the new conductive microfilament fibers developed by US companies can be completely commercialized, which is the US EY.

technology

The latest products developed by the development company.

In fact, as early as 6 years ago, the company was approved by the Department of small business innovation research (SBIR) of the US Department of defense and was sponsored by the US military supplies department.

ICon fiber


Fiber materials developed according to this technology are widely used in the field of construction, mainly used for resisting concrete shrinkage and so on, which is only a physical function.

Since then, another product developed by the company is only limited to a special kind of wire wrapped filament, which mainly develops intelligent uniforms for US soldiers.

This uniform can pmit data and information.

However, today, in their view, this technology is far from meeting the needs of the market, because the versatile function of fiber materials has become a reality, and the multi-functional characteristics have gone beyond the limitations of the past and extended to a broader field.

They have recently developed fiber materials with new characteristics.


Material characteristics


Fiber optic technology is applied to textile fiber. EY company has realized the combination of continuous fiber and liquid indium alloy. The textile grade polymer insulation sleeve can effectively protect the conductive wire, and its flexibility is very strong. The covering layer can be well insulated, the stretching degree can reach 10%, and it can be reduced.

Compared with other materials, the maximum degree of expansion of metal drawn steel wire is only 2%.

As a result, iCon fiber is easy to achieve the textile standard.

The developed textile grade polymer sleeve is suitable for users, and also meets polyester, nylon and polycarbonate and other materials standards. It is also suitable for various standards of color and dye coating.


According to international standards, the diameter of iCon fiber is 75 m (user standard), which is equivalent to 4~10 times of carbon fiber, while tensile strength reaches 40~70ksi, and the compression strength is equivalent to 22dtex nylon fiber. The conductivity of indium alloy is 25% of pure copper and 1/3 of gold conductivity, but far higher than that of stainless steel and black metal.


For this reason, the company strengthens fiber quality in manufacturing process, ensures the characteristic stability of filaments metal core, avoids defects such as round heads and holes.

They are also continuously monitored during the production process, avoiding the difference in diameter and the emergence of holes.

Such monofilament or multifilament conduction combined with textile fibers has become the biggest technology highlight.


The prospect of Technology


EY Technology Development Company has tested this patent in many ways, including epoxy resin coating test, cyclic load test and tension and pressure test, and reactance test.

Other tests include fatigue test, consistency test, load growth test and washing test.

On the other hand, the researchers found that the properties of the fiber depended mainly on reactance and temperature.

The data obtained from the test of iCon filament composite show that the fabric woven with this kind of fiber material can be partially or wholly strengthened, and can be used for many purposes.

In addition, the outer layer chemistry of the polymer can be optimized, which can be combined with any resin, and can also withstand high pressure and high temperature.


ICon fiber material samples can also be used for many purposes, including therapeutic use of fabrics, excessive human sprain testing, electromagnetic shielding research, etc., but the largest scientific achievement is its versatile and versatile nature.
