The Antistatics Databook contains detailed information on over 300
frequently used antistatic additives for polymers -- additives capable
of modifying properties of materials so that they become antistatic,
conductive or EMI shielded. The potential risks of static electricity,
as well as the variety of antistatic additives available, mean that
selecting the correct antistatic agent is vital. This databook is an
important source of information for industry, research, and academia.
Each additive is presented with data in the following categories:
General Information; Physical Properties; Health and Safety; Ecological
Properties; and Use and Performance. The Databook includes a large
amount of data, from state, odor, and color to autoignition temperature
and probability of biodegradation. Recommendations are provided for
products, processing methods and dosages, and the features and benefits
of each additive are assessed.
