Abstract

In recent years, the use of electrical and electronic devices has grown rapidly. These devices cause electromagnetic interferences, which could threaten human life. In order to solve this problem, intensive research to develop textile surfaces having electromagnetic shielding properties continues. In this paper, we study textile surfaces knitted with conductive copper and stainless steel wires wrapped with acrylic yarns and also core yarns produced by using conductive yarns to test the electromagnetic shielding properties of the fabrics. It was concluded that the knitted structure of the fabrics affected the electromagnetic shielding effectiveness (EMSE). Besides, the fabrics knitted on a double needle bed of the knitting machine with higher amounts of conductive yarns and unit weights could not provide the targeted improvement in the EMSE values with respect to the fabrics produced on a single needle bed of the knitting machine.
