Resistivity of antistatic plastic mouldings & conductive packaging trays
Typically, conductive plastic trays have a volume resistivity of ≤103 and a surface resistivity of ≤104. They are often used to store static sensitive products in clean room environments or as packaging to protect items in transport or whilst being moved between work cells.
Injection moulded antistatic mouldings and conductive plastic mouldings can offer much wider and improved surface and volume resistivity rates, dependent on the grade used. Typical uses include Screening Cases and Covers to protect static sensitive products.
| An explanation of the terms antistatic / conductive / dissipative & resistivity | |
|---|---|
| antistatic (1010-1012 ohms/sq.) |
suppresses initial charge build up, minimises tribo charging from low speed movement & insulates against moderate to high leakage currents. |
| conductive (104-106 ohms/sq.) |
provides a grounding path for charge bleed off & dissipates tribo charging from high speed movement *Higher resistivity shielding materials are also available* |
| dissipative (106-109 ohms/sq.) |
prevents static discharge to or from human contact. |
| resistivity | ability to dissipate static charges on the surface or throughout parts (volume). |
