ESD Anti-static shoes selection skills
As one of the necessary items for personal protection, anti-static shoes can guide static electricity from the human body to the ground, eliminate static electricity on the human body, and effectively suppress the dust generated by staff walking in the clean room. However, as a special work shoe, it is different from ordinary work shoes in terms of selection and purchase, and requires certain identification skills and experience. People who often use anti-static shoes know that there are very high requirements for the material ratio of the sole, such as the color, weight, hardness, smell, performance, etc. of the sole, which must be quite suitable.
The anti-static function of anti-static shoes mainly lies in the application of technologies such as soles and insoles. At present, there are three types of sole molding technologies, including PU, PVC, and SPU one-time molding. PU and PVC are relatively easy to distinguish. From the corner, the bottom of PU is much thicker than PVC, and there is also a difference in hand feel. PU is much softer than PVC, while SPU is between PU and PVC.
Therefore, when choosing anti-static shoes, you must pay attention to the material of the sole to see which one is the most suitable. In addition, when buying anti-static shoes, pay special attention to the material of the insole should also be anti-static, so that it can truly discharge static electricity.
