The difference between anti-static shoes and insulating shoes

The difference between anti-static shoes and insulating shoes
1. The resistance of anti-static material and insulating material is different
Generally speaking, the insulation resistance is greater than 1012Q, while the anti-static resistance is between 1062 and 10120. The insulating rubber is non-conductive, and the anti-static material is conductive, but the resistance value is relatively large, and the standard requirement is between 106 and 109.
2. The performance of anti-static shoes and insulating shoes is different
Anti-static shoes are made of adding anti-static materials to the soles. Anti-static shoes have a weak conductive function, which can guide the excess electric charges of the human body to the earth and avoid charge accumulation.
Accumulatively generate electrostatic discharge, thereby playing the role of eliminating static electricity in the human body. The soles of insulating shoes are made of non-conductive insulating materials, which can isolate the human body from the ground, so that even if the human body comes into contact with conductive objects, there will be no electric shock accidents.
3. Anti-static shoes and insulating shoes have different application ranges
Anti-static shoes are generally used in precision electronics, components and other electronic companies, optical instruments, pharmaceutical companies, etc. During the use of anti-static shoes, friction does not generate static electricity, so that electronic products can be protected from static electricity. For use in dust workshops, it needs to be used with anti-static clothing. Insulating shoes are mainly used to protect the human body from the influence of electricity. There are no special requirements for the ground and protective clothing. They are generally worn by electricians to prevent electric shock caused by step voltage, and also to prevent electric shock accidents due to ground conduction.
