StatZorb®

Polyester wipe

Back to our polyester wipes

The wipe StatZorb®, made of 98% polyester, 2% conductive fibre, is static dissipative. Its unique grid pattern minimizes "hot spots" and is especially suitable for cleaning work in electrostatically critical areas. The abrasion-resistant wipe is pre-washed in a cleanroom laundry (air cleanliness class ISO 4) and double packed.

StatZorb®

Interlock knit, 98% PES / 2% PA/C fibres, antistatic

-

Properties

  • 98% polyester, 2% conductive fibre (polyamide/carbon)
  • interlock fabric made from filaments with a specially designed grid weave pattern
  • surface resistance 4.3 x 107
  • electrostatic discharge < 1.5 sec.
  • laser cut and sealed edges
  • decontaminated in a cleanroom laundry
  • double bag packed in a cleanroom (air cleanliness class ISO 4)

Advantages

  • electrostatically conductive wipe on both sides thanks to the grid pattern of the threads with carbon
  • reduced particle and fibre emission due to the thermally sealed edges
  • abrasion and chemical resistance

Applications

  • cleaning work in electrostatically critical areas
  • dry wiping of sensitive electronic components
  • manufacture of disk drives and magnetic resonance heads

Of course, cleanroom wipes used in ISO 5 can also be used in ISO 9, but in this case the economic efficiency and usefulness should be considered.

A 1 to 1 allocation of cleanroom wipes to an air cleanliness class according to ISO 14644-1 is not possible. Recommendations can only be made on the basis of special properties relevant from a cleanroom technical point of view, such as "abrasion resistance" or "particle emission". Users can find further information on this in VDI Guideline 2083 Part 9.2.

Note

The manufacturer's technical data listed above are typical values at the time of publication. They are not specifications. All data are without guarantee, changes are possible without prior notice.
Due to different test methods depending on the respective manufacturers and test laboratories, most of the given values cannot be compared one-to-one with those of other manufacturers/wipes.
Independent tests can be commissioned on request.
