The R&R Lotion ICAS-32-ESD IC ESD Safe topical antistat spray, 32 oz. bottle, dries to form a static dissipative coating that resists the storage of static electricity when grounded to help prevent electrostatic charge buildup on plastics, boxes, carpets, and other static generating materials. It comes in an ESD-safe, static dissipative 32 oz. trigger spray bottle for use in clean rooms and electrostatic protected areas. The bottle has an average surface resistivity of 1 x 109 to 1 x 1010 Ω/sq, and can help to meet American National Standards Institute/Electrostatic Discharge Association (ANSI/ESDA) S20.20 requirements.
Topical antistatic sprays can reduce the amount of static electricity generated by sprayed surfaces. Electrostatic discharge (ESD) is the sudden flow of electricity between two objects in contact or close proximity. Even small amounts of unplanned ESD can cause fires, contamination, or other damage to electrical, manufacturing, or other sensitive processes. ESD can be controlled through the use of electrically conductive or static dissipative flooring, footwear, clothing, grounding wrist straps, and humidity control, among other tools and procedures. Static dissipative materials are less conductive than electrically conductive materials, and provide a slower, more controlled release of static electricity to ground.
R&R Lotion manufactures chemical specialty products for the electronic, medical, pharmaceutical, and industrial markets, including Industrial Sunscreen brand sunscreen for outdoor workers. All products are made in the U.S.A. The company, founded in 1983, is headquartered in Scottsdale, AZ.
