Permanent anti static agent provides long lasting performance

Static problems associated with plastic products such as thin films not only cause processing problems in manufacture as well as use in the converting industry, but also adversely affect performance during usage. To achieve long term performance, anti static characteristics should remain during the entire life span of the product, but conventional anti static agents provide solutions that are temporary. Non-permanent anti static agents are typically hygroscopic in nature and are basically less compatible with polymers. Their migration to surface generates anti static behaviour in the plastic products. Water absorption of the anti static agent makes it conductive. Typically these non-permanent anti static agents have low molecular weight and are chemicals like glycols, sulphonates or amides.
