Anti-static Properties of the fabric
by : Rahul Sharma
Anti-static Properties:-
The anti-static properties of the fabric samples were determined by resistance measurement using a Static Voltmeter R-1020 (Rotchschild, Swiss). Two fabric specimens of 10 mm × 100 mm were cut and tested in both warp and weft. Each specimen was fixed between two fixation screws. The insulated terminal was charged from the builtin DC source. The elapsed time, (, was defined as the time required to discharge half of the charge present in the specimen. The resistance of the specimen was calculated using equation (1).
Where R is the resistance (Ù) and t is the elapsed time (seconds).
