SILVER-SILK | Shielding fabric | Width 150 cm | 1 metre

SILVER-SILK is a semi-transparent real silk fabric with a high silver thread content

Properties

SILVER-SILK is a semi-transparent real silk fabric with a high silver thread content for the protection against high-frequency (HF) and low-frequency radiation (LF). Typical application as curtain, as room divider in laboratory’s, medical practices, etc. and because its groundable to sew a bed canopy.

Special feature

We are happy to present the first shielding fabric made of silk. Together with a well-known producer we succeeded in combining silk & silver to the finest shielding fabric we ever had in our assortment in 20 years. On top of that, a high shielding attenuation of 54 dB for a ‘normal’ looking fabric has never before existed.

• Good transparency at very high screening attenuation
• Contactable (groundable) to shield LF electric fields
• Textile characteristics: Washable, ironable, sewable.
• Quality grade: Very high

Silver products

• Silver fabrics have a limited durability, depending on the frequency of movement.
• Our silver fabrics do not contain any nano silver, but a thick metallic silver coating.

Grounding

This product with an electrically conductive surface has to be integrated into the functional-equipotential bonding (FEB). Please find suitable grounding accessories under “Grounding”.

Shielding attenuation HF & LF

This product shields high frequency electromagnetic fields (HF). Unless otherwise stated, the indicated dB-values apply to 1 GHz. Measurement from 600 MHz to 40 GHz according to standards ASTM D4935-10 or IEEE Std 299-2006.

This product with an electrically conductive surface shields low-frequency alternating electric fields (LF).

Ready for 5G

Some companies offer “special” 5G-products. This products shields all 5G-frequencies, even without advertising this! Find two gray bars in all shielding diagrams with the 5G frequency spectrums FR1 (600 MHz – 6GHz) and FR2 (24 GHz – 40 GHz).
