We are pleased to highlight one of our suppliers, Palsgaard A/S who offer a number of long-lasting, bio-based and food-grade anti-static additives for PE Foams.
The use of efficient anti-stats in PE foam is particularly important in the packaging of sensitive electronics, where static build-up may result in electrostatic discharge that will be detrimental to circuit boards and other electronic components.
Einar® 601 is a proven performer, delivering excellent anti-stat protection to PE foam even at low humidity conditions. Recommended loading levels are 0.2 – 0.5% for most applications.
Einar® 601 has no adverse effect on foam stability. The product is a 100% amine and amide-free solution and will not interact with ageing modifiers such as Einar® 201. Due to its chemistry, there are no issues with stress cracking of polycarbonate when packaging materials are in direct contact with packaged electronic components.
