Abstract
Static-dissipating fabric constructions especially suitable as upholstery material comprise a dielectric wear surface, which is a durable film or sheet of polymeric material such as polyvinyl chloride or polyurethane, and a conductive substratum securely bonded to the underside of the wear surface. The substratum has a surface resistance of 10.sup.9 ohms/square or less.
Claims6
A static-dissipating fabric construction capable of preventing the buildup of static to levels exceeding the threshold level of human sensitivity, which fabric construction comprises a durable, continuous, unitary film or sheet of polymeric material functioning as a wear surface, and a conductive substratum securely bonded to the underside of the wear surface, the substratum having a surface resistance of 10.sup.9 ohms/square or less.
