TS 9499 Textile Products - Determination of Static Electricity (Electrical Resistance Measurement Method)

EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of TS 9499 test. This standard covers the determination of static electricity occurring during manufacture and use in textile products, yarns and fiber in the form of tops.

The electrostatic behavior of textiles can be critical in a variety of industrial applications for safety and functional reasons. It can be particularly important for clothing used in some industrial environments where a static charge can ignite a flammable gas or dust, as well as in clean rooms where static electricity can attract dust or interact with sensitive electronics.

The method described in this standard is used to determine the electrical resistance of strips made of textile flat structures containing mixtures of materials whose resistance is significantly lower than that of the textile material, in order to improve its ability to discharge electrostatic charges.

For the current standard, an electrode arrangement has been developed in which the electrode spacing can be adjusted to a size that takes into account the fact that the electrode spacing is variable and therefore charge distribution must generally occur over larger stretches of textile material.
