Anti-static work clothing is a shielding clothing
Electronic factories now have antistatic work clothes, but the role of antistatic work clothes is not very clear. Some people think that if you wear an antistatic wrist strap and wear antistatic shoes, antistatic work clothes are optional. The static electricity on your clothes or clothes will be discharged to the ground through anti-static wrist straps and anti-static shoes. In fact, this is a common misconception.
Most garments are insulated or have insulating properties (depending on the amount of sweat in the garment, thickness, fabric, number of layers, etc.). The charge does not move on the insulator, it will remain on the insulator, so the static electricity will be neutralized after a certain period of time.
Therefore, your sleeve, belt, etc. may carry a voltage of several thousand volts (the electric field it generates is very strong for the surrounding conductors), which may cause charges to be induced on nearby isolated conductors. unimaginable. Therefore, workers need to wear anti-static work clothes to shield insulated clothes to minimize the electrostatic field generated by the clothes.
