Compliance with the ESD protection requirements of international standards is crucial for personal protective equipment (PPE) to guarantee safety in hazardous environments and static-sensitive facilities, including in ATEX zones, automotive and electronics manufacturing, cleanrooms, oil & gas, and mining, chemical, pharmacy, and medical facilities. Graphene nanotubes ensure compliance with ESD safety standards, providing stable, humidity-independent electrical resistance to all elements of the uninterrupted grounding chain of ESD-safe clothing.
The unique morphology and properties of graphene nanotubes provide stable anti-static properties and additional functionality to PPE. The granted electrical conductivity ensures high-level ESD protection according to international standards and additional functionality for protective wear, such as dust repellency and touch-screen compatibility. Ultralow working dosages, which are dozens of times lower that of other anti-static additives, make it possible to maintain final product durability and color flexibility, preserving mechanical properties and standard processing.
Do you have questions or ideas for new applications of graphene nanotubes?
Graphene nanotubes offer stable, permanent ESD protection and an anti-static effect, allowing seamless touch-screen operation without removing work gloves. This ensures both worker and product safety and compliance with the EN 16350 standard.
