Product details

The anti-static MC501 R6 sheet is a functional polymer material based on MC nylon (cast nylon) modified with a composite conductive filler (primarily a carbon black system). It is a classic model in the anti-static MC501 series (R6 represents the resistance level). This material combines the high strength, wear resistance, and self-lubrication of MC nylon with stable anti-static performance (surface resistivity of 10⁵ - 10⁹ Ω). It is widely used in electronics, semiconductors, petrochemicals, precision manufacturing, and other fields with stringent ESD protection requirements.

Anti-static mechanism and MC nylon substrate foundation

(1) Static electricity problems and protection needs

Ordinary MC nylon (such as unmodified cast nylon) has a surface resistivity of >10¹³ Ω (insulator), and is prone to accumulate static charge (voltage can reach thousands of volts) during friction, separation or contact charging. When the electrostatic discharge (ESD) energy exceeds 0.2mJ (such as the minimum ignition energy of methane in petrochemicals) or adsorbs dust particles (particle size <1μm), it will cause:

Electronic industry: static electricity breakdown of microcircuits during chip packaging (such as ESD threshold of electrostatic sensitive devices in wafer fabs <100V);

Precision manufacturing: dust adsorption contaminates optical components (such as semiconductor lithography machine lenses);

Hazardous chemical scenarios: static electricity sparks ignite flammable and explosive gases (such as oil storage tanks, organic solvent environments in pharmaceutical factories).

(2) Characteristics of MC nylon substrate

MC nylon (Monomer Casting Nylon) is a nylon material directly cast by anionic ring-opening polymerization of caprolactam monomer. Compared with extruded PA6/PA66: Ultra-high crystallinity (70% - 90%): The molecular chains are highly oriented, giving it a tensile strength of 80 - 120 MPa and a flexural modulus of 5000 - 8000 MPa (common PA6 is only 50 - 70 MPa and 2000 - 3000 MPa);

Self-lubricity: The friction coefficient is only 0.1 - 0.2 (common plastics are 0.3 - 0.4), and it has excellent wear resistance (wear loss ≤ 0.05 cm³/(1.61 km)); High temperature resistance: Continuous use temperature -40°C to +100°C (short-term temperature resistance 120°C).

(3) Anti-static modification principle

Anti-static MC501 R6 Sheet adds conductive filler (main system carbon black) to the MC nylon matrix to build a "conductive network" to reduce resistivity:

The role of carbon black: Carbon black particles (particle size 20-50 nm) have high specific surface area and electronic conductivity. When the dispersion concentration in the nylon matrix reaches the critical threshold (about 15%-20% mass fraction), the particles form a continuous conductive path through contact or tunnel effect, which allows static charge to be quickly discharged (surface resistivity is reduced from >10¹³ Ω to 10⁵-10⁹ Ω);

Precise control of R6 model: By optimizing the carbon black type (such as acetylene carbon black or furnace carbon black), dispersion process (such as high-speed stirring + twin-screw mixing) and substrate crystallinity control, the resistance value is ensured to be stable at 10⁵-10⁹ Ω (surface resistance) / 10⁴-10⁸ Ω (volume resistance) range, and the resistance fluctuation is less than 10% after long-term use (such as more than 10 years).
