PC-300™ Polycarbonate Static Dissipative Plastic
B.I.R.S. Machine & Supply is a distributor and fabricator of Static Dissipative Plastic PC-350™ Polycarbonate sheet.
Static Dissipative Plastic PC-350™ Polycarbonate (Bending Grade) is a plastic sheet product designed to control static electricity for a wide range of applications. Static Dissipative Plastic PC-350™ Polycarbonate (Bending Grade) is a premium quality polycarbonate sheet which has been coated with a proprietary, clear, C-350™ static dissipative coating. This unique technology prevents charge generation on the sheet surfaces, thereby controlling particulate attraction and preventing electrostatic discharge (ESD) events. This performance is permanent and totally independent of humidity. Static Dissipative Plastic PC-350™ Polycarbonate (Bending Grade) offers exceptional design versatility since it fabricates simply, is light in weight and is available in large sheet sizes. It also exhibits excellent clarity and chemical resistance, plus superior impact resistance, flame spread properties, and bending characteristics.
Applications
Static Dissipative Plastic PC-350™ Polycarbonate (Bending Grade) resists tribocharging under all circumstances and cannot generate a charge when properly grounded. This makes it ideal for use in manu-facturing 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, micro-manufacturing, and mining industries. Static Dissipative Plastic PC-350™ Polycarbonate (Bending Grade) is a plastic sheet product that controls static electricity for many applications, including bent and contoured equipment covers, guards, enclosures, panels, windows, doors, and access panels for electronic equipment, keypads, assembly machines and instruments; conveyor line covers and shields; and equipment enclosures. The product also has many general industrial uses, including protection for static charge sensitive manufacturing devices and control of spark discharge in explosive environments.
Static Dissipative PC-350™ Polycarbonate (Bending Grade)Features and Benefits
-
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 4046.1Results 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 impact resistance
Provides exceptional shatter resistance for safety.
-
Superior flame spread properties
Provides additional protection for equipment in a fire.
-
Superior fabrication and bending characteristics
Provides maximum versatility and workability during part fabrication.
-
Superior chemical resistance
Reduces risk of solvent or chemical surface damage.
-
Excellent clarity
Premium optical quality polycarbonate with clear C-350 surface minimizes visible distortion.
