All LAPONITE products have conductivity and can be used for static electricity prevention.
Recommended products: LAPONITE-RDS, LAPONITE-JS, LAPONITE-S 482, and LAPONITE-SL 25. All LAPONITE products have conductivity and can be used for static electricity prevention. The LAPONITE sol grade is easy to apply as a high-concentration, low-viscosity dispersion, making it particularly useful for the purpose of anti-static treatment.
Inquire About This Product
basic information
There are two areas where LAPONITE is used as an antistatic agent. One is the manufacturing of antistatic products such as paper, glass, and polymer films. A dispersion of LAPONITE is applied to create a coating layer on the material so that an antistatic film is formed on the surface of the product. The final product resulting from this process is typically classified as antistatic grade material. The standard usage amount is a coating weight of 1g.m-2 to 5g.m-2. The other area is functioning as an aid in processes. Manufacturing processes that involve handling small particle size materials (such as paper fibers or plant seeds) in dry environments tend to accumulate static electricity. This can lead to undesirable phenomena where particles agglomerate together or adhere to surfaces inside processing equipment and on packaging materials. To dissipate this static charge and allow dry particles to flow freely during the process, LAPONITE is added to the system. The final product obtained from this process is usually not classified as an antistatic material. The standard usage amount is 0.1% to 1.0% relative to the total dry mass of the materials involved in the process.
