Staticide[R] ESD Safety Shield, a durable water-based acrylic
coating, bonds to plastics such as tubing, clamshell protective
packaging, carrying trays, and lids. It dries clear and leaves a
dissipative coating that will not wash off or biodegrade. The coating
can be brushed on, dipped, or sprayed. Surface resistivity is [10.sup.5]
to [10.sup.7] [ohm] and available in customized formulations for lower
resistance and complex plastics. Blended from polymer materials, it does
not contain silicone or chloride contaminants. A gallon covers 1,500
[ft.sup.2] when applied with a foam brush and 600 [ft.sup.2] using a
flow coat. ACL Staticide, www.rsleads.com/803ee-198
