absorption material for ESD sensitive devices, generally used as an intermediate layer
material for packaging. Antistatic materials do not generate electrical charges when in motion
or when rubbed. But if electrostatic discharge occurs, ESD can penetrate the package,
causing ESD/EOS for ESD sensitive devices.
Static dissipative materials:
Parts with sufficient conduction properties to allow the charge
to dissipate through the surface of the material and leave the EOS/ESD protected work area
must be packaged with static shielding materials, usually with static dissipative materials and
antistatic materials sandwiched in the middle of the package.
Some static shielding and antistatic materials, as well as some topical antistatic agents, may
affect the solderability of components, components, and materials in the process. Care should
be taken to select packaging and handling materials that do not contaminate the product, and
to follow the manufacturer's instructions for use. Solvents that clean the surfaces of static
dissipative or antistatic materials can reduce their ESD protection properties. It is necessary
to follow the manufacturer's recommendations for cleaning.
