1. Performance of PELESTAT Products
PELESTAT imparts conductivity to resins, releases static electricity effectively, and protects you from problems caused by static electricity including destruction of electronic circuits, electroshock, malfunctions of appliances and adhesion of dust.

2. Why the Performance of PELESTAT Products is Durable and Less Humidity-dependent
When compounded with resins, PELESTAT products form numerous connected conductive channels on the surface layer of resins, and impart an immediate and permanent antistatic property to the resins.
On the other hand, low-molecular antistatic agents when compounded with resins, migrate to the surface and form a continuous layer on the surface. Low-molecular antistatic agents are slow-acting and the performance is moisture-dependent, because the continuous layer on the surface becomes electroconductive only after absorbing moisture from the air. Furthermore, the performance is not durable, because the surface layer is easily removed through wiping or washing with water.
