Whether anti-static shoes and anti-static socks must be chosen


Anti-static shoes are made of PU or PVC materials. The soles are made of anti-static and anti-skid materials, which can absorb sweat and deodorize, and can also achieve anti-skid and anti-static functions. They are integrally formed with the upper and then reinforced on the line. Used in the production workshops of microelectronics such as electronic semiconductor equipment and electronic communication equipment, it is a kind of work shoes worn to eliminate the damage of static electricity to electronic products.

Before using anti-static shoes, the resistance of the shoes should be tested, but anti-static socks that are closely related to anti-static shoes are often ignored. What is the reason? I also encountered many such problems in the process of receiving customers. Do I have to wear anti-static socks when I wear anti-static shoes? Do you have to choose one or the other?

Many customers think that only wearing ordinary anti-static socks shoes can pass the test, there is no need to wear anti-static socks. In fact, this method is very wrong.


Now many men like to wear thick cotton socks, and women like to wear nylon stockings, so they often fail to pass the test after wearing anti-static shoes, especially when they just wear anti-static shoes. Some companies will think that this is a problem of anti-static shoe technology, often neglecting the problem of socks. When the staff wearing thick socks sweat on the soles of the feet, because the sweat contains salt and can conduct electricity, it can pass the test. If it is just worn or rarely sweats, the test can not pass.


After wearing anti-static socks, wearing anti-static shoes can pass the test. This shows that anti-static shoes and anti-static socks are indispensable in human anti-static systems. Socks should wear thin nylon socks or conductive fiber socks, and can not wear wool or chemical fiber fabric socks. If you need to use insoles, use insoles with conductive wires (it is best to make matching insoles when making shoes). Otherwise, the entire pair of shoes will lose the anti-static effect, which is no different from ordinary shoes.
