Thermoforming

The thermoforming process consists of changing the form of a thermoplastic sheet through heat and pressure. Certain thermoforming conditions must be met in order to maintain the required two phase polymer network that provides the ESD (electrostatic dissipative) path in Stat-Rite® polymer alloys. Therefore, the selections of thermoforming conditions are critical for maximizing the electrical and mechanical results.

Performance Features
• Even stretching of material
• Consistent ESD properties during the process – no hot spots
• No significant surface resistivity difference
