Abstract

An electrically conductive non-woven fabric (10) for heating applications is described and comprises a three-dimensional network (11) of non-woven synthetic fibers (12) which are non-electrically conductive and electrically conductive strands (13) of synthetic fibers or fine metal wires consolidated therewith. The fabric has an intrinsic resistivity in the range of from about 0.05 to 5 m2/kg.
