*********************************************************
“An antistatic agent is a compound used for treatment of materials or
their surfaces in order to reduce or eliminate buildup of static electricity
generally caused by the triboelectric effect. Its role is to make the surface or
the material itself slightly conductive, either by being conductive itself, or
by absorbing moisture from the air, so some humectants can be used. The
molecules of an antistatic agent often have both hydrophilic and hydrophobic
areas, similar to those of a surfactant; the hydrophobic side interacts with the
surface of the material, while the hydrophilic side interacts with the air
moisture and binds the water molecules.”
