What are the properties of anti-static agents in hot forming?

What are the properties of anti-static agents in hot forming? Thermoformed products are applied in many fields, such as the electronics industry, food packaging, etc. Some require anti-static treatment, and the performance of various anti-static agents is as follows:
1. Non ionic anti-static agent
Due to its good thermal stability, low price, easy use, and non irritating to the skin, non-ionic anti-static agents are indispensable anti-static agents in anti-static substrates and have good application prospects.
2. Composite anti-static agent
Composite anti-static agents are developed based on the principle of coordinated effects of each component, with strong complementarity among the components and much better anti-static effects than single components. But attention should be paid to the antagonistic effects between various anti-static agents. Cationic and anionic anti-static agents cannot be used simultaneously.
3. Multi functional concentrated anti-static masterbatch
Due to the fact that anti-static agents are mostly viscous liquids, and some of them are polar polymers, they are difficult to disperse in plastics, which brings inconvenience to their use. Multi functional concentrated masterbatch has uniform dispersion, easy operation, and promising development prospects.
4. Polymer anti-static agent
Due to the good durability of polymer anti-static agents, they are generally used for plastic products that require strict anti-static effects, such as household appliance casings, automotive casings, electronic instrument components, precision mechanical components, etc.
5. Nano conductive filler
The characteristics of nanomaterials are small particle size and large effective surface area, which give them special surface effects, quantum size effects, and macroscopic quantum tunneling effects. Nanomaterials can alter the original properties of materials
