An electrically conductive coating known as an Antistatic Coating is used to lessen or completely eliminate the effects of a static electrical charge. The term electrostatic dissipative coating is another name for it. Additionally, lowering static electricity prevents dust from easily adhering to coated substrate surfaces. As a result, interior surfaces in clean rooms, computer rooms, printing and electronic factories, hospitals, pharmaceutical factories, and other factories and locations that deal with dangerous gases or liquids should be coated with antistatic material. The anti-coating layer is resistant to environmental elements including wind, rain, humidity, and UV rays from the sun.
