Hazardous accidents may occur in any production site. Electro static charge build-up is one of such causes of hazardous accidents in many industries. For example: explosion ignited by discharge, deteriorated productivity, inferior quality by malfunctioning of system, contamination and etc. |
In daily life at home, office or at production site, static electricity causes various hazards to deteriorate the quality of life or production.
In day to day personal life environment and industrial environment, hazards such as explosion, adhesion of lint to the products will cause deteriorated production yield and damage to quality of products. Kuraray Co., Ltd developed <Clacarbo>, carbon impregnated polyester yarn and has continued to improve the technology for over 30 years.
<Clacarbo> has unique cross section impregnated with electro conductive carbon powder or white metal oxide to conjugate the polymer.
High performance as well as outstanding durability conductive fiber contribute to the elimination of static electricity from the environment
Application field: petroleum refining , oil tankers, gas stations, thermal power plant, manufacturing sites of solvent, painting, coal mining industry, semi-conductor, etc.
The types of material cross sections preventing static electricity. For the safe working environment
