Tips: Comparison of anti-static fabrics and other fabrics

Compared with anti-static fabrics and other fabrics, in terms of specific use, the conductive filaments in the conductive silk fabric are mainly embedded on the back of the fabric to facilitate the appearance and flatness of the fabric. The back of the fabric is a semiconductor, and the front surface of the fabric is an insulator. Therefore, after the garment is made, only the static electricity generated by the friction between the garment and the human body is eliminated, and static electricity generated by friction with the external equipment cannot be eliminated, and the front surface of the garment is still charged. Because the blended fabric is a conductive fiber added to the yarn in the textile process, the front and back of the fabric belong to the semiconductor, and the positive and negative charges on the surface of the fabric can be conducted and cancel each other out, and can quickly and uniformly eliminate the production of human body and clothing. The static electricity, as well as the contact with the outside world by the static electricity generated by the clothing surface, clothing has no charge accumulation.

In oil, petrochemical, refining, chemical and other industries, the main purpose of wearing anti-static clothing and related protective equipment is to eliminate static electricity generated by the outside world and the human body, while avoiding the accumulation of electric charge and eliminating safety hazards caused by sparks generated during electrostatic discharge.

Therefore, in most high-risk industries, the protective performance of blended anti-static fabrics has been accepted. The use of blended anti-static fabrics not only improves the anti-static performance, but also reduces the security risks.
