Static electricity generation:

Static electricity is an objectively existing natural phenomenon, which can be produced in many ways, such as contact, friction, and induction between electrical appliances. Static electricity is characterized by long-term accumulation, high voltage, low power, small current and short action time.

The actions of the human body or the contact, separation, friction or induction with other objects can generate thousands of volts or even tens of thousands of volts of static electricity.

Static electricity causes serious harm in many areas. Friction electrification and human body static electricity are two major hazards in the electronics industry, which often cause unstable operation or even damage to electronic and electrical products.

The main measures of electrostatic protection in the production process are electrostatic leakage, dissipation, neutralization, humidification, shielding and grounding.

The human body electrostatic protection system mainly consists of anti-static wrist straps, ankle straps, heel straps, work clothes, footwear, caps, gloves or finger cots, etc. It has the functions of static discharge, neutralization and shielding.

Electrostatic protection is a long-term systematic project, and any mistake or omission in any link will cause the failure of electrostatic protection.

The harm of static electricity:

Static electricity can be said to be ubiquitous in our daily lives. There are high electrostatic voltages on and around our bodies, thousands of volts or even tens of thousands of volts. Usually, people may not realize that the static electricity of a chemical fiber carpet is about 35,000 volts, and reading the plastic manual is about 7,000 volts. For some sensitive instruments, this voltage may be fatal.

Electrostatics mainly studies electrostatic application technologies, such as electrostatic dust removal, electrostatic photocopying, electrostatic biological effects, etc. More important is the electrostatic protection technology, such as the electronic industry, the petroleum industry, the weapon industry, the textile industry, the rubber industry, and the aerospace and military fields, seeking to reduce the losses caused by static electricity. With the rapid development of science and technology, the wide application of microelectronics technology and the increasingly complex electromagnetic environment, the electromagnetic field effects of electrostatic discharge, such as electromagnetic interference (EMI) and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), have become an urgent problem to be solved. . On the one hand, some high-resistivity polymer materials such as plastics, rubber and other products are widely used and the modern production process is speeding up. On July 29, 1967, a serious accident occurred on the American Forrestal aircraft carrier and an A4 aircraft The missile ignited suddenly, causing losses of 72 million U.S. dollars and injuring 134 people. The investigation results showed that the missile shielding joint was unqualified, and static electricity caused the ignition. At the end of 1969, in less than a month, the static electricity generated during the washing of the three 200,000-ton supertankers of the Netherlands, Norway, and the United Kingdom caused successive explosions.

There have been more than 30 serious fire and explosion accidents caused by static electricity in petrochemical enterprises in my country. Many industrialized countries have established electrostatic research institutions. Our country has carried out some electrostatic research work since the late 1960s. Since the 1980s, the electrostatic research in our country has developed extremely rapidly. In 1981, the Electrostatics Professional Committee of the Chinese Physical Society was established and the first national electrostatic academic conference was held. National and local electrostatic academic conferences continued to be held. The scope of electrostatic research and application became wider and wider, and the scientific research team continued to grow. .
