Is the antistatic overall an electrical conductor or an insulator?
Anti-static clothing is a protective clothing used to remove static electricity from the human body and protect the product from static electricity. Some people don't understand the principle of anti-static clothing, so I don't know whether the anti-static clothing is an electrical conductor or an insulator.
First of all, the anti-static clothing is a work clothes made of anti-static fabric, which can be called anti-static overalls. When the antistatic fabric is woven, it is formed by mixing and interlacing the conductive fibers and the antistatic synthetic fibers substantially uniformly and at equal intervals. Secondly, the conductive fiber is a general term for a fiber made of a conductive material of a metal or an organic substance or a subconductive material in whole or in part, and its volume resistivity is between 104 and 109 ohms. Conductive fibers can be divided into three types according to the distribution of conductive components in the fibers: uniform, covered, and composite.
Most antistatic overalls are made of conductive fibers.
Anti-static overalls made of conductive fibers added to chemical fiber fabrics, the principle of eliminating static electricity accumulation is the discharge and neutralization of electric charges. When grounded, the static electricity on the antistatic esd overall will neutralize a part due to the corona discharge of the conductive fiber, and more static electricity is discharged to the earth through the conductive fiber and left the human body. If it is not grounded, it can only be dissipated by a weak corona discharge. Therefore, it is required to wear anti-static shoes while wearing anti-static clothing, equipped with anti-static floor.
From the principle of the anti-static clothing above, it is not difficult to see that the anti-static clothing is an electrical conductor, not an insulator.
Anti-static clothing manufacturers, in addition to anti-static clothing, clean clothing, dust-free shoes, clean cloth, gloves, hats, etc., are our main products, please feel free to contact us.
