What is Conductive PPE?
Conductive PPE is Personal Protective Equipment. This protective gear is electrically conductive and can be used to protect personnel when working in electrostatically sensitive environments. Conductive PPE usually includes conductive gloves, conductive shoes, conductive overalls, etc. They are made using conductive materials or conductive fibers to ensure that static electricity can be effectively discharged to the grounding point, thus preventing the danger of static electricity. Conductive PPE is widely used in some special environments, such as flammable and explosive places or situations where electrostatic sensitive equipment and materials need to be handled during work. They can effectively reduce or eliminate the accumulation of static electricity, reducing the risk of fire or ** caused by electrostatic discharge. When using conductive PPE, it is necessary to follow the relevant safety operating procedures and ensure that the quality and performance of the equipment meet the requirements of the standard to provide the best possible protection. At the same time, it is also necessary to regularly inspect and maintain conductive PPE to ensure that it continues to function effectively.
What is conductive PPE.
Conductive PPE is a material made of engineering plastic polyphenylene ether as the base material, conductive carbon black as the conductive filler, coupled with coupling agent, antioxidant, internal and external lubricants, etc., using special surface treatment technology, high-speed mixer blending, and twin-screw extrusion mixing. It has the characteristics of low resistivity, good conductivity, low density, high concentration, uniform dispersion of the matrix, stable quality, easy processing and molding, good comprehensive performance, etc., and can adjust the electrical and mechanical properties of the material according to the needs in a wide range. Conductive PPE is widely used in antistatic and conductive materials, electronic (integrated electrical) packaging and transportation materials, electromagnetic wave shielding materials, absorbing materials and other fields.
How to choose the right conductive PPE material?
The selection of suitable conductive PPE materials can refer to the following aspects:
Choose according to your needs: The choice of the appropriate PPE depends on the environment and operation to be performed.
Focus on the characteristics of the material: PPO PPE+ carbon fiber anti-static plastic has good dimensional stability, good mechanical properties, electrical insulation and water resistance, flame retardancy and self-extinguishing, dielectric properties and other characteristics.
Consider the application field of materials: PPO materials are mainly used in electronic appliances, automobiles, office equipment and other industries.
