A method for the production of conductive structures, wherein nanofibers are applied with a photocatalytic component onto a substrate, in particular by electrospinning, and wherein a metallic layer is deposited photolytically on the substrate.

A method, system, and resulting linear fibrous formation are provided wherein a supporting linear formation defines a core that is transported through a spinning chamber. A coating of polymeric nanofibers enveloping the supporting linear formation in the spinning chamber. The coating of polymeric nanofibers comprises a flat stripe wound around the core into a helical form, the flat stripe created from a hollow electrically neutral nanofibrous plume generated in a spinning space above a spinning electrode during spinning by AC electric voltage in the spinning chamber.

The present disclosure relates to an electrostatic intermingling device and a process for intermingling filaments. The filaments are intermingled to produce a yarn. The electrostatic intermingling device comprises a funnel, an expansion tube, a plurality of slits, a plurality of electrodes, and an electrically grounded disc. The plurality of slits are configured on the periphery of the expansion tube to receive a plurality of electrodes. The funnel is adapted to statically charge the filaments passing therethrough. The polarity of the plurality of electrodes is selectively altered to modify the spatial configuration of the statically charged filaments, so as to intermingle the statically charged filaments and obtain intermingled charged filaments. The electrically grounded disc is adapted to receive and neutralize the intermingled charged filaments. The electrostatic intermingling device and the process of the present disclosure are economical.
