Conductive Mineral Materials for Anti-Static Epoxy Floor Coatings
Due to electromagnetic interference and hazards of static electricity,high performance was required for electrostatic protection materials.The characters and anti-static mechanism of conductive materials were reviewed on electrostatic protective coatings.As a typical example,the conductive mineral materials of the anti-static epoxy floor coatings were discussed on electrostatic protection materials.It was focused on the anti-static coating of conductive metallic materials,light colored conductive materials,and dark carbon anti-static coatings materials.The composition,structure,and properties of conductive materials inducing anti-static performance were discussed mainly on the coating of graphitic carbon materials.On the basis,the development trend of conductive materials for anti-static floor coatings was assumed.The anti-static floor coatings with high-performance could be developed for electrostatic protection.Compared with traditional materials,carbon graphite mineral materials showed obvious advantages.By using a small amount of graphene based on graphite mineral,the epoxy resin showed high conductivity and good anti-static effect.It will be very important to pay attention to the microstructure properties of conductive materials,conduct assembly of nanostructure at the molecular and atomic level,in order to develop the cost-effective anti-static coatings,which can be used in many fields such as medicine and electronic instruments that require anti-static cleaning.
