ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene) filament with enhanced electrostatic discharge (ESD) properties offers several benefits, especially in applications where electrostatic discharge can be damaging or disruptive. Here are some of the benefits:
1. ESD Protection: The primary benefit of ABS filament with ESD properties is that it provides protection against electrostatic discharge. This is crucial in environments where static electricity can damage sensitive electronic components or cause operational failures in electronic devices.
2. Improved Component Longevity: By preventing electrostatic discharge, ABS ESD filament helps to prolong the lifespan and reliability of electronic components and devices.
3. Enhanced Safety: ESD can pose safety hazards in certain environments, particularly those involving flammable materials or explosive atmospheres.
PETG ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) is a type of PETG (Polyethylene Terephthalate Glycol) plastic that has been modified to provide protection against static electricity. This is particularly important in industries where sensitive electronic components are handled, as static electricity can damage or destroy these components.
1. Surface Resistivity: This is a measure of how well a material conducts electricity across its surface. For ESD materials, including PETG ESD, surface resistivity is typically measured in ohms per square (Ω/sq). Lower surface resistivity indicates better conductivity and therefore better protection against static electricity buildup. Common surface resistivity values for PETG ESD range from 10^4 to 10^9 ohms/square.
2. Volume Resistivity: Similar to surface resistivity, volume resistivity measures the resistance to electricity through the bulk of the material rather than just across its surface. Volume resistivity is also measured in ohms, but per unit volume (usually ohm-cm). Lower volume resistivity values indicate better conductivity. PETG ESD typically has volume resistivity values ranging from 10^4 to 10^12 ohm-cm.
3. Static Decay Time: This is the time it takes for a charged material to dissipate its charge to a certain level, typically to 10% of its original charge. Static decay time is measured in seconds and is an important indicator of how quickly a material can neutralize static charges. For PETG ESD, static decay times are often in the range of milliseconds to seconds.
Charge Generation: This specification refers to the ability of the material to generate static charges when
