Antistatic agents are also added to some military jet fuels, and to nonpolar organic solvents, to impart electrical conductivity, thus avoid buildup of static charge that could lead to sparks igniting fuel vapors. The static dissipator additive Stadis 450 is the agent added to some distillate fuels, commercial jet fuels, and to the military JP-8.
These additives are added to polymers used as sheathing for electrical cables, most commonly PEX. [34] Compounds include benzil and thioxanthone derivatives. [ 35 ] These possess high electron affinities, which allow them to trap and neutralize charge carriers that can cause dielectric breakdown of the insulation.

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
Ethylene bis stearamide (EBS) is an organic compound with the formula (CH 2 NHC(O)C 17 H 35) 2.It is a waxy white solid and is also found as powder or beads that is widely used as a form release agent.
Hindered amine light stabilizers (HALS) are chemical compounds containing an amine functional group that are used as stabilizers in plastics and polymers. [1] These compounds are typically derivatives of tetramethylpiperidine and are primarily used to protect the polymers from the effects of photo-oxidation; as opposed to other forms of polymer degradation such as ozonolysis.
An antistatic bag is a bag used for storing electronic components, which are prone to damage caused by electrostatic discharge (ESD). These bags are usually plastic polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and have a distinctive color (silvery for metallised film , pink or black for polyethylene ).
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.
