Method of forming supported antistatic yarn
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A continuous method of making a supported antistatic yarn, the method comprising the steps of:
- (a) suffusing finely divided, electrically conductive particles into a polymeric filamentary substrate by applying a dispersion of particles in a liquid, the liquid being a solvent for the substrate; and
(b) contacting the filamentary substrate with a support yarn before the solvent applied to the filamentary substrate has evaported, the solvent being a solvent for both the filamentary substrate and the support yarn; and
(c) evaporating the solvent so that the filamentary substrate is intermittently solvent-bonded to the support yarn.

Abstract
Disclosed is a method of making a supported antistatic yarn and products resulting therefrom. The method involves merging a support yarn into contact with a filamentary polymer substrate immediately after the filamentary substrate has had a mix applied thereto. The support yarn is solvent bonded to the polymer substrate due to the characteristics of the mix.
