Why are the prices of PVC anti-static shoes lower?

Anti-static shoes are commonly used work shoes in industrial production. According to the sole material, they can be divided into PVC-soled anti-static shoes, PU-soled anti-static shoes, and SPU-soled anti-static shoes. These three kinds of shoes are all foamed and formed at one time. Anti-static shoes are reinforced with flexible and strong conductive thread, which has excellent anti-static performance, but the price of PVC anti-static shoes is relatively low. Why?

PVC material

Before understanding PVC anti-static shoes, we must first understand what PVC is. The Chinese name of PVC is polyvinyl chloride. It is a kind of recycled material. It is produced by the polymerization of vinyl chloride monomer with peroxides and azo compounds or under the action of light and heat according to the free radical polymerization reaction mechanism. Under unstable conditions, it will decompose to produce hydrogen chloride above 100℃ or after long-term sunlight exposure, and further auto-catalytically decompose, causing discoloration, and rapid decline in physical and mechanical properties. In practical applications, stabilizers must be added to improve the Heat and light stability.


PVC anti-static shoes

The soles of PVC anti-static shoes are made of PVC. The processed PVC soles are harder and more rigid to wear. Therefore, PVC anti-static shoes are not suitable for workers who stand for a long time. However, this kind of anti-static shoes has a non-slip effect It's very good, it's also very light to wear, and the price is cheap, so many manufacturers still choose it.
