What’s the different between the U-Silver brand fiber and nano silver fiber?

In fact, U-Silver brand fiber is a different thing with the nano-silver fiber. The U-Silver fiber is a fiber product which has a metallic pure silver film on the nylon base. This type of fiber is not charged so there is no negative or positive electrical charge left on its surface.

The thickness for 4 micrometer(4um) on the photos shown is around 4,000 nano meter. In fact, U-Silver fiber is similar with X-STATIC’s structure and performance. X-STATIC developed this type of fiber for anti bacterial function requirement. As a consequence, their products are mostly for anti-bacterial purpose. While our U-Silver fiber focus on electrical applications, for example EMF shielding. So, we need a higher requirement for the leveling and thickness on the fiber surface. Of course, a better coated and thicker film means better anti bacterial performance because bacterial reduction value is positively correlated with the metallic silver content.
