What is anti-static fabric

After anti-static processing fabrics called anti-static fabrics.

Fabric antistatic processing methods usually have:

1 fabric with antistatic finishing agent for finishing;

(2) Graft modification of fibers, blending and interweaving of hydrophilic fibers for the purpose of improving the hygroscopicity of fabrics;

3 blended or embedded conductive fibers;

The mechanism of action of the first two methods is to increase the moisture regain, reduce the insulation, and accelerate the electrostatic leakage. Therefore, if the processing effect is not durable or insignificant in a dry environment or after multiple washings, it is usually applied to ordinary clothing fabrics. Only the third method can solve the electrostatic problem of textiles in a lasting and efficient manner, so it is widely used in the production of anti-static overalls. The fabric is finished with an antistatic finish.

Anti-static fabrics can be woven fabrics, such as conductive silk, anti-static T/C fabrics, or knitted fabrics, such as anti-static knitted gloves cloth, anti-electric knitted underwear. Anti-static fabrics must not only meet the general technical standards for textiles, but also must have good anti-static properties to meet the needs of product production and safety.

The technical requirements may refer to GB12059-89 "Electrostatic Fabrics for Antistatic Silk Performance and Test Methods for Electronic Industry" and GB/T12703-91 "Static Testing Methods for Textiles".
