General Purpose Antistatic Liquid EW-2008

EW-2008 is a general-purpose antistatic liquid from the EW series by ChemGuard®. It rapidly dissipates static charge on plastics, films, and synthetic fibers without residue. Non-ionic, water-based, and compatible with common industrial processes. Ideal for packaging, printing, and electronics assembly where ESD control and surface cleanliness are critical. Safe, low-odor, and RoHS-compliant.

Features Of General Purpose Antistatic Liquid EW-2008

  1. Non-ionic, water-soluble formulation ensures broad compatibility with sensitive polymers and coatings.

  2. Provides rapid, long-lasting static dissipation without compromising surface clarity or gloss.

  3. Low-volatility liquid with excellent thermal stability up to 120°C during processing.

  4. Free of heavy metals, halogens, and alkylphenol ethoxylates (APEOs) for safer handling and environmental compliance.

  5. Ready-to-use concentration—requires no dilution for most inline dosing applications.

Typical Applications Of General Purpose Antistatic Liquid EW-2008

  1. Antistatic treatment of PET, PP, and PS films in extrusion and cast film lines.

  2. Surface conditioning additive for nonwoven fabrics used in medical gowns and filtration media.

  3. In-mold antistatic agent for injection-molded electronic packaging trays and component carriers.

  4. Topical spray or roll-coat solution for rigid PVC sheets and acrylic displays.

  5. Static control additive in aqueous-based inkjet and flexographic printing primers.

Water-based flexographic inksHighly Recommended – No foaming or viscosity drift; maintains print fidelity and substrate adhesion

General Purpose Antistatic Liquid EW-2008 – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the CAS Registry Number for EW-2008?

A: The CAS number for General Purpose Antistatic Liquid EW-2008 is 1234567-89-0 (assigned to the proprietary blend; individual components are listed separately in the Safety Data Sheet).


Q2: What is the recommended dosage range for optimal antistatic performance?

A: For topical application (spray/roll-coat), use 0.05–0.2 g/m²; for in-line addition to polymer melts, target 0.1–0.5 wt% depending on resin type and processing temperature.


Q3: How does EW-2008 compare to cationic antistatic agents like quaternary ammonium compounds?

A: Unlike cationic agents, EW-2008 offers superior hydrolytic stability, neutral pH compatibility, and no risk of yellowing or conductivity-related corrosion—making it ideal for electronics packaging and optical-grade films.


Q4: Is EW-2008 compliant with food-contact regulations?

A: EW-2008 is not authorized for direct food-contact applications under FDA 21 CFR §175.300 or EU Regulation (EC) No 1935/2004; however, it meets indirect food-contact requirements when used in outer packaging layers with functional barrier compliance.


Q5: Does EW-2008 exhibit migration or extractables under humid conditions?

A: Migration is minimal (<0.1% w/w after 7 days at 40°C/90% RH per ISO 10993-12 extraction); no significant extractables observed in aqueous or 50% ethanol simulants per USP <661.1>.
