An electrically conductive yarn comprises stainless steel fibers. The electrically conductive yarn comprises at least one elongated element, which has an outer surface being provided out of metal or metal alloy having a lower specific electrical resistance than the stainless steel fibers.
An electrically conductive yarn comprises stainless steel fibers with a specific stainless steel electrical resistance. The stainless steel fibers are coated with a metal coating, consisting of a metal material having a specific electrical resistance, smaller than the specific electrical resistance of stainless steel.
An electromagnetic shielding device has a bottom layer, a shielding layer and a top layer. The shielding layer is mounted between the bottom layer and the top layer and is made of metal filaments and textile fibers. The metal filaments and the textile fibers of the shielding layer are blended and formed into a mesh. The electromagnetic shielding device in the present invention may be made into patches or forms that can be adhered to electrical and electronic equipment, or adapted for use in clothing.
