How does the antistatic masterbatch play its role

Yancheng Ruize Color Masterbatch Co.,Ltd

Static electricity is a universal natural phenomenon that is produced in a variety of ways, such as contact, friction, and stripping. In daily life, static electricity may only occasionally bring some inconvenience, but in certain industries and environments, static electricity can cause serious harm.


PART 01 Effects of static electricity on different industries

Static electricity is ubiquitous in daily life, and in industrial production, the influence of static electricity is far-reaching and complex, involving many industrial fields.


01 Electronics and semiconductor industries

Electronic components such as integrated circuits and semiconductors are extremely sensitive to static electricity, electrostatic discharge can damage sensitive electronic components, resulting in product performance decline or even complete failure, in addition, electrostatic adsorption dust will pollute the surface of electronic components, affecting its heat dissipation performance and electrical connections, thereby reducing the yield, increase production costs.


02 Petrochemical fire industry

In the petrochemical fire industry, anti-static measures are related to the safety of life and property. Electrostatic discharge may cause fire or even explosion, resulting in heavy casualties and property losses.


03 Pharmaceutical Industry

Static electricity has also had a major impact in the pharmaceutical industry. In the process of drug production, static electricity can cause drug powder to adsorb on equipment and containers, which not only affects the purity and dose accuracy of drugs, but also may cause cross-contamination. In addition, electrostatic discharge may cause the explosion of combustible dust, which poses a serious threat to production safety.


04 Plastics industry

Static electricity is also a common problem in the plastics industry. Plastic products are prone to static electricity during the production process, which leads to product adhesion, clogging transmission pipelines and attracting dust, affecting product quality. Electrostatic discharge may also cause electric shocks to the operator, affecting production efficiency and work enthusiasm.


PART 02 Why should non-woven fabrics be Antistatic

Non-woven fabric is a new type of fiber products that does not require traditional textile processes. With its soft, breathable, light weight, non-combustion-supporting, non-toxic and non-irritating characteristics, it is widely used in medical, health, industry, agriculture and other fields. However, in the production and use of non-woven fabrics, the problem of static electricity has been a challenge that cannot be ignored.


Static electricity is usually caused by friction, where electrons transfer when two different materials come into contact and separate, resulting in one object being positively charged and the other negatively charged. Non-woven fabrics are mostly made of chemical fibers, these materials usually do not have hydrophilic groups, low moisture regain, so it is easy to generate electricity due to friction in the production process.


Static electricity will not only lead to adsorption, adhesion, winding and other problems in the production process of non-woven fabrics, affecting production efficiency and product quality, but also may bring safety risks in some special applications.


For example, in the medical field, non-woven fabrics are widely used in the production of surgical clothing, protective clothing, wrapping cloth and so on. The operating room is a highly sensitive environment to static electricity, and static sparks can cause the explosion of flammable anesthetics, posing a serious threat to doctors and patients.


In addition, static electricity can also cause non-woven fabrics to absorb dust, affecting the cleanliness of the surgical environment. Therefore, high-grade surgical clothing and protective clothing must be antistatic treatment to ensure the safety of the medical process.


PART 03 How does non-woven fabric resist static electricity

In order to solve the static problem of non-woven fabrics, antistatic masterbatch came into being. Antistatic masterbatch is a kind of additive specially developed for the electrostatic problem of non-woven fabrics. It usually contains conductive carbon black, antistatic agents, lubricants and other components, by mixing these components with non-woven raw materials in a certain proportion, can effectively inhibit the generation of static electricity in the production process.


The antistatic masterbatch works by increasing the electrical conductivity of the material so that the generated static electricity can be released quickly, rather than accumulating on the surface of the material. Specifically, through a highly efficient conductive material, significantly improve the electrical conductivity of the material, and then reduce the resistivity of the material surface through antistatic agents, accelerate the dissipation of static electricity, and lubricants can reduce the friction between the materials, thereby reducing the generation of static electricity.


The use of antistatic masterbatches has many advantages, first of all, it is simple to operate, just add the right amount of masterbatches to the raw material, without the need to make major changes to the existing production equipment. Secondly, the antistatic effect is durable, and stable antistatic properties can be maintained even in low temperature or dry environments. In addition, the antistatic masterbatch will not affect the original properties of non-woven fabrics, such as strength, softness, etc., but also improve the flame retardant performance of the product and expand the application range of non-woven fabrics.


Ruizer antistatic masterbatch is more easily dispersed than the previous direct addition of liquid, powder or paste antistatic agent to achieve the ideal antistatic effect.


The antistatic masterbatch is resistant to high temperature, has good performance, and will not decompose during spinning or injection molding. The addition amount is low, the effect is fast, and the effect is lasting. According to the processing characteristics of different resins, different high-efficiency antistatic agents are selected to meet the requirements of various processing industries.
