Conductive IXPE Foam with 2-200mm Thickness and 10e3-10e6ohm Surface Resistance for Electronic Packing

Electronic components or assemblies at risk from electrostatic discharges (ESD) are among those sensitive elements which can be destroyed or damaged if the permitted levels of current or impact energy are exceeded. As a rule, these are always semi-conducting components and most are also thick- and thin-film construction elements.

This type of construction element is mostly damaged through human mishandling. A human-being can charge several thousands of volts just by walking. A discharge can be felt by humans from approximately 2000-3000 V, a current which is already well above the 'tolerance level' of many ESD components.

Before buying or implementing ESD safe products one needs implementing an ESD safe procedure according to the ESD standards IEC 61340 or ANSI S2020 which is the foundation of ESD preventive protective work and a greater guarantee of quality assurance.

HerzESD strives to serve our customers better by offering correct and clear explanatory answers. We try to do so, even when informing our customers better means contradicting a more established but sometimes flawed opinions on the market.

At HerzESD we pride ourselves on ensuring the only correct ESD solution. To continue this vision we need reliable ESD manufacturers and suppliers on which we can always count. HerzESD is a solid partner and together with our international partners we stay strong and vigilant in regards to possible improvements or new solutions in tackling and controlling static electricity.
