Electrically conductive (antistatic) plastics conduct the spare charges away and remain neutral. There is no risk of uncontrolled electrostatic discharge (ESD). Electrically conductive plastics are right material choice for applications where static electricity will cause the risk of explosion or malfunctio...
This is probably the most widespread problem in the plastics, packaging, paper, textile and similar industries. It shows itself as product misbehaviour, sticking together, repelling each other, sticking to machinery, dust attraction on mouldings, bad winding and many other symptoms. ...
For example: plastics, fiber glass, rubber, textiles, ect. Under the right conditions, this induced charge can reach 30,000 to 40,000 volts. When this happens to an insulating material, like plastic, the charge tends to remain in the localized area of contact. This electrostatic voltage may...
While most of ESD events are harmless to the human body, they can cause challenging and expensive problems in certain industrial environments. Static electricity is a problem for electronic and medical device manufacturing, vehicle fabrication, industries that use plastics and paper, and ones that nee...
IEC 61340-5-1:2016, Section 5.3.4.2 Insulators“All non-essential insulators and items (plastics and paper), such as coffee cups, food wrappers and personal items shall be removed from the workstation or any operation where unprotected ESDS are handled.” “Process essential” Insulators When ...
(PBT, PET) and other thermoplastic engineering plastics such as PA, POM, PP, PVC, ABS, HIS, PE. It is an antistatic agent, lubricant, dispersant, and anti-fogging agent for polypropylene (PP) and polyethylene (PE). It is a lubricant for thermosetting plastics (PDA approved, allowed for ...
What are some eco-friendly solutions for packing PCBs? Green packaging options for PCB transport include paper cushioning instead of plastic foams, biodegradable corn starch-based packing peanuts, recycled cardboard boxes, and avoiding single-use plastics. However, effectiveness should not be sacrificed...
insoluble in water, soluble in hot chlorinated hydrocarbons and aromatic solvents. Widely used in slippery agent, anti-adhesion agent, lubricant and antistatic agent. Non-toxic, suitable for PE, PP, PS, ABS resins and thermosetting plastics internal and external lubricants. The general dosage is 0....
Some fillers make plastics electrically and thermally conductive, and others add thermal conductivity without electrical conductivity. Both types are needed for thermal management, as polymers become an increasingly common replacement for metal and can improve a product’s design, reduce its weight, and...
