Abstract
A method for making a fiber electrically conductive comprises the steps of: (a) providing a fiber having a negative electric charge at the surface of the fiber, (b) applying to the fiber a substance (such as a polyelectrolyte) which provides a layer of said substance on the fiber and changes the electric charge at the surface of the fiber from negative to positive, wherein said substance is not chitosan, and (c) making the surface of the fiber electrically conductive with a metal, wherein the metal of step (c) is provided in the form of metal ions and wherein a reducing agent (for example) is employed to reduce the metal ions to elemental metal. Fabrics formed from conductive fibers are also provided.
