PC-300™ Polycarbonate Static Dissipative Plastic

B.I.R.S. Machine & Supply is a distributor and fabricator of PC-300™ Polycarbonate Static Dissipative Plastic.

Static Dissipative Plastic PC-300™ Polycarbonate is a plastic sheet product designed to control static electricity for a wide range of end uses. It is a premium quality polycarbonate sheet which has been coated with SciCron Technologies proprietary, clear, C-300™ static dissipative coating. This unique technology prevents charge generation on the sheet surfaces, thereby controlling particulate attraction and preventing electrostatic discharge (ESD) events. This performance is permanent and totally independent of humidity.

PC-300 Polycarbonate offers exceptional design versatility since it fabricates simply, is light in weight and is available in large sheet sizes. It also exhibits superior impact resistance and flame spread properties, plus excellent clarity, chemical resistance, and abrasion resistance.

** Static Dissipative Plastic PC-350™ Polycarbonate is a (Bending Grade) **

Applications
Static Dissipative Plastic PC-300 Polycarbonate resists tribo-charging under all circumstances and cannot generate a charge when properly grounded. This makes it ideal for use in manufacturing and assembly operations for charge sensitive electronic components where it can help prevent both immediate and latent ESD caused defects. Since it resists charge build-up it does not attract contaminants, so it can also help prevent contamination-related rejects in ultra-clean manufacturing operations. Static Dissipative Plastic PC-300 Polycarbonate is suitable for use in the semi-conductor, electronic, micro-manufacturing, and mining industries.

Static Dissipative Plastic PC-300 Polycarbonate Features and Benefits

Cannot be tribo-charged when properly grounded

Prevents build-up of static charge and accumulation of harmful contamination.

Electrostatic decay in less than 0.05 second per

Federal Test Standard 101C, Method 4046.1Results in rapid static dissipation without arcing.

Surface resistivity of 106 - 108 ohms per square

Provides for ESD control without the need for ionization.

Permanence in static dissipation performance

Avoids cost of application of temporary topical anti-stats.

Humidity independent static charge control

Avoids inconvenience of maintaining high levels of humidity and damage caused by such humidity.

Advanced technology, uniform surface treatment. Avoids conductive discontinuities (charged "hot spots") often found with non-uniform temporary topical anti-stats.
Superior impact resistance

Provides exceptional shatter resistance for safety.

Superior flame spread properties

Provides additional protection for equipment in a fire.

Hard, abrasion resistant, durable surface C-300 surface, harder than the base plastic, reduces risk of damage to the sheet surfaces.
Superior chemical resistance

Reduces risk of solvent or chemical surface damage.

Excellent clarity

Premium optical quality polycarbonate with clear C-300 surface minimizes visible distortion.
