For dissipative materials, the charges flow through the material slowly and in a somewhat more controlled manner than with conductive materials. Dissipative materials have a surface resistivity equal to or greater than 1 x 10^5 Ω/sq but less than 1 x 10^12 Ω/sq or a volume resistivity equal to or greater than 1 x 10^4 Ω-cm but less than 1 x 10^11 Ω-cm2. Dissipative materials are classified as anti-static, and are considered to be the ideal range for ESD materials. Our range of Dissipative Gloves includes hand protection that meets these standards.
