Crystal clear urethane coating adheres to metal, plastic and most other surfaces.

Produced by Techspray, Licron Crystal is described as a revolutionary and innovative concept in permanent static dissipative coatings It is a versatile, crystal clear urethane coating that adheres to metal, plastic and most other surfaces

This makes it ideal for converting standard boxes, bins, tools and other surfaces to ESD-safe, saving expensive replacement cost.

The end result is compliant with ANSI/ESD-S20.20, which prevents static damage to sensitive electronic components.

Applications include electronic assembly workstations and enclosures, component packaging, conveyors and electronic devices themselves.

Peter Swanson, MD at Intertronics, explains: "This is an excellent product in so many ways - not only can users self-apply to virtually their whole work area using aerosol, standard spray gun or other paint systems - it also leaves a clear nonchipping ESD-safe surface that maintains 10 to 1000Mohm resistivity".

Licron Crystal operates independently of humidity and leaves a surface that can be simply grounded by wire attachment in a similar way to any normal ESD floor.
