Why use anti-static floor mats
For manufacturers with ESD protection requirements, they have done a variety of anti-static equipment, such as human body electrostatic protection, anti-static table mats on the workbench, etc., but they often ignore the ground anti-static equipment that is a major source of static electricity. For example, anti-static mats should be laid on the ground.
Then why use anti-static floor mats for anti-static treatment? Friction is a very common way of generating static electricity. The friction between the soles of the feet and the ground, and the friction between the wheels of a moving car and the ground will generate static voltages above kilovolts. Even employees wearing anti-static work shoes walking on ordinary ground often generate static voltages above 1000V. Therefore, anti-static treatment on the ground is an indispensable accessory for ESD protection areas. The use of anti-static floor mats and the hidden burial of conductive copper foil can effectively reduce the excessive generation of friction static electricity and the grounding release of static electricity.
The anti-static floor mat is made of rubber and has a two-layer composite structure. The surface layer is commonly colored in green, blue, gray and other colors. It is an electrostatic protection layer, and the bottom layer is generally a black conductive layer. In addition to anti-static function, anti-static floor mats also have many advantages. A certain amount of elastic buffering capacity can effectively avoid the damage of the product after falling to a large extent; its chemical resistance and abrasion resistance are also good; it will not produce noise when the surface moves; it is simple to lay, and can be used as it is ; Simple maintenance and low maintenance cost.
