Technical Specification for Anti – Static Polyester Fabric

Product Details:

Anti-Static Fabric is a specialized textile designed to prevent the accumulation of static electricity, making it ideal for use in environments where static discharge could lead to equipment damage or safety hazards. These fabrics are commonly used in various applications, including industrial workwear, cleanroom garments, and protective coverings.

1. Electrostatic Dissipation:

   • Engineered with conductive fibers or coatings that help dissipate static charges away from the body and surfaces, minimizing the risk of electrostatic discharge (ESD).
   • Effectively reduces static electricity build-up in environments where sensitive electronic components are handled.

2. Material Composition:

   • Typically made from a blend of synthetic fibers (such as polyester or nylon) and conductive materials (such as carbon or stainless steel fibers) to enhance conductivity while maintaining fabric strength.
   • Can also include natural fibers like cotton for added comfort and breathability.

3. Comfort and Breathability:

   • Designed to be lightweight and breathable, allowing for comfort during extended wear, particularly in industrial or cleanroom settings.
   • Soft texture ensures ease of movement and reduces skin irritation.

4. Durability:

   • Constructed to withstand rigorous industrial use, these fabrics exhibit high tensile strength and abrasion resistance.
   • Many anti-static fabrics are washable and retain their properties over time, even after multiple launderings.

5. Versatility:

   • Available in various forms, including garments (e.g., coveralls, lab coats, and aprons), curtains, and other protective coverings to suit different applications.
   • Can be tailored for specific needs, such as flame resistance or chemical resistance, while still maintaining anti-static properties.

6. Compliance with Standards:

   • Manufactured in accordance with industry standards for ESD safety, such as ANSI/ESD S20.20, ensuring reliable performance in static-sensitive environments.
   • Some fabrics may be certified to meet specific performance criteria for static control.

• Electronics Manufacturing: Used for garments and coverings to protect against ESD when handling electronic components.
• Cleanrooms: Essential for cleanroom apparel to prevent contamination and static charges in controlled environments.
• Pharmaceuticals: Employed in manufacturing and laboratory settings to maintain product integrity and prevent static-related hazards.
• Automotive Industry: Utilized in assembly and maintenance areas where electronic components are sensitive to static.

1. Garment Care:

   • Follow manufacturer guidelines for washing and maintaining anti-static fabrics to ensure longevity and effectiveness. Generally, use mild detergents and avoid fabric softeners.
   • Regularly inspect garments for signs of wear or damage, which may compromise their anti-static properties.

2. Integration with ESD Protocols:

   • Use in conjunction with other ESD protective gear, such as wrist straps and footwear, to create a comprehensive static control program.
   • Ensure personnel are trained in proper ESD practices to maximize the effectiveness of anti-static clothing.

3. Environment Monitoring:

   • Monitor humidity levels in environments where anti-static fabrics are used, as low humidity can increase static electricity issues. Maintaining a relative humidity of 40-60% can help minimize static build-up.
