Conductive fibres/yarns can be produced in filament or staple lengths and can be spun with traditional non-conductive fibres to create yarns that possess varying degrees of conductivity. Also, conductive yarns can be created by wrapping a non-conductive yarn with metallic copper, silver or gold foil and be used to produce electrically conductive textiles. Conductive threads are typically finer and stronger than conductive yarns... 1, record 1, English, - conductive%20yarn

Guipage. L'opération de guipage consiste à recouvrir un fil auquel on a donné le nom d'«âme» par un fil ou filé de toute sorte, l'enrobant. Ce recouvrement peut être effectué de deux façons : - par une succession de couches de fil enroulées en spirales autour d'un fil d'âme; - par une succession de mailles formées par un fil ou un filé, empilées les unes sur les autres à l'intérieur desquelles se place le fil d'âme. [...] On peut différencier deux types de fils [...] : a) le fil en âme, b) la fibre en âme. 2, record 3, French, - %C3%A2me
