ABSTRACT:
The deformation sensitive electroconductive knitted or woven fabric of the present invention is a knitted or woven fabric, which can be changed in electroconductivity at the deformed portion when the deformation of stretch or compression is applied thereon by maintaining in the certain ratio of the number of electrically insulating portions to the number of electroconductive portions at the intertwined portions of the fibers and/or the portions between the intertwined portions of the fibers. By using this knitted or woven fabric directly or a deformation sensitive electroconductive sheet having an elastomer laminated on at least one surface of the knitted or woven fabric, it can be utilized as an stretch sensitive electroconductive device or pressure sensitive electroconductive device provided electrodes capable of detecting the changes in electroconductivity corresponding to deformations as electrical characteristics such as electrical resistance. This deformation sensitive electroconductive device is more excellent in measurement of great deformations and durability in repeated uses as compared with the pressure sensitive electroconductive device using the pressure sensitive electroconductive elastomer sheet mixed with electroconductive fillers which has been used in the prior art.
