  2. Antistatic device - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antistatic_device

    An antistatic wrist strap with crocodile clip. An antistatic device is any device that reduces, dampens, or otherwise inhibits electrostatic discharge, or ESD, which is the buildup or discharge of static electricity. [1] [2] ESD can damage electrical components such as computer hard drives, and even ignite flammable liquids and gases.

  3. Electrostatic discharge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrostatic_discharge

    Electrostatic discharge (ESD) is a sudden and momentary flow of electric current between two differently-charged objects when brought close together or when the dielectric between them breaks down, often creating a visible spark associated with the static electricity between the objects. ESD can create spectacular electric sparks (lightning ...

  4. Electrostatic-sensitive device - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrostatic-sensitive_device

    Symbol for an ESD protection device – EPA Alternate warning symbol Symbol of an ESD grounding point for all components. An electrostatic-sensitive device (often abbreviated ESD) is any component (primarily electrical) which can be damaged by common static charges which build up on people, tools, and other non-conductors or semiconductors. [1]

    Static Dissipative Anti-Static Insulative: Description Carbon powders and fiber: No initial charge. Provides path for charge to bleed off. Typically black color. No or low initial charge. Prevents discharge to or from human contact Initial charges are suppressed. Typically pink color. Insulators and Base Polymers. Not an ESD material

  6. Corona treatment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corona_treatment

    Many substrates provide a better bonding surface when they are treated at the time they are produced. This is called “pre-treatment.” The effects of corona treatment diminish over time. Therefore, many surfaces will require a second “bump” treatment at the time they are converted to ensure bonding with printing inks, coatings, and ...

    Early in the pandemic, he said, research moved quickly, with researchers desperate to better understand the SARS-CoV-2 virus that causes COVID-19, and find effective treatments for very sick people.

  8. Air ioniser - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_ioniser

    Air ionisers are often used in places where work is done involving static-electricity-sensitive electronic components (like in microelectronics cleanrooms), to eliminate the build-up of static charges on non-conductors. As those elements are very sensitive to electricity, they cannot be grounded because the discharge will destroy them as well.

    Altogether, I had treatment for seven months: six rounds of intense chemo and 25 rounds of radiation. Because I had such a severe case in such a late stage, I was given an extremely strong ...
