OVERVIEW of PVC-300™ ESd Sheet |
PVC-300™ is a plastic sheet product that controls static electricity for many applications, including windows, doors, machine covers and enclosures, and fabricated desiccators and cabinets. It is a high quality polyvinyl chloride sheet coated with SciCron Technologies clear, C-300™ static dissipative coating which prevents charge generation on the sheet surfaces. This controls particulate attraction and prevents electrostatic discharge (ESD) events completely independent of humidity. PVC-300 fabricates simply, is light in weight and is available in large sheet sizes. It has excellent chemical resistance, surface hardness, and mar resistance, plus superior flame spread properties.
Applications:
PVC-300 resists tribocharging under all circumstances and cannot generate a charge when properly grounded. This makes it ideal for use in manufacturing and assembly operations for charge sensitive electronic components where it can help prevent both immediate and latent ESD caused defects. Since it resists charge build-up it does not attract contaminants, so it can also help prevent contamination-related rejects in ultra-clean manufacturing operations. Consequently, it is suitable for use in the semi-conductor, electronic, and micro-manufacturing industries. Typical applications include; covers, windows, doors, and access panels for electronic equipment, assembly machines and instruments; transparent partitions; process equipment enclosures; and fabricated desiccators, cabinets, and boxes. The product also has many general industrial uses, including protection for static charge sensitive manufacturing devices and control of spark discharge in explosive environments.

FEATURES AND BENEFITS of PVC-300™ ESd Sheet |
|
Features of PVC-300™ ESd Sheet (Flat Grade):
Cannot be tribocharged when properly grounded -
Prevents build-up of static charge and accumulation of harmful contamination.
Electrostatic decay in less than 0.05 second per Federal Test Standard 101C, Method 4046.1
- Results in rapid static dissipation without arcing.
Surface resistivity of 106 - 108 ohms per square
- Provides for ESD control without the need for ionization.
Permanence in static dissipation performance
- Avoids cost of application of temporary topical anti-stats.
Humidity independent static charge control
- Avoids inconvenience of maintaining high levels of humidity and damage caused by such humidity.
Advanced technology, uniform surface treatment
- Avoids conductive discontinuities (charged "hot spots") often found with non-uniform temporary topical anti-stats.
Superior flame spread properties
- Provides additional protection for equipment in a fire.
Hard, mar resistant, durable surface
- C-300 surface, harder than the base plastic, reduces risk of damage to the sheet surfaces.
Superior chemical resistance
- Reduces risk of solvent or chemical surface damage.
