TMF-300™ Check Film
- Chemical Family
- Polyesters
TMF-300™ Check Film is a clear film product designed to control static electricity. It is a high tensile, high tear strength polyester film surfaced with Scicron Technologies proprietary, clear, C-300™ static dissipative coating. This unique technology prevents charge generation on the film surface, thereby controlling particulate attraction and preventing electrostatic discharge (ESD) events. This performance is permanent and totally independent of humidity. The film also exhibits excellent clarity, toughness, chemical resistance, surface hardness, mar resistance, and dimensional stability.

- Benefits and Features
Cannot be tribocharged when properly grounded - Prevents build-up of static charge and accumulation of harmful contamination.; Electrostatic decay in less than 0.05 second per Federal Test Standard 101C, Method 4046.1 - Results in rapid static dissipation without arcing.; Surface resistivity of 106 - 108 ohms per square - Provides for ESD control without the need for ionization.; Permanence in static dissipation performance - Avoids cost of application of temporary topical anti-stats.; Humidity independent static charge control - Avoids inconvenience of maintaining high levels of humidity and damage caused by such humidity.; Advanced technology, uniform surface treatment - Avoids charged "hot spots" often found with non-uniform temporary topical anti-stats.; Superior optical properties - High clarity polyester film with C-300 surfacing means excellent transparency.; Excellent dimensional stability - Means retention of dimensions over a wide range of conditions.; High tear and tensile strength polyester film - Results in long term durability.; Hard, mar resistant, durable surface - Results in long term static dissipative performance.; Superior chemical resistance - Reduces risk of solvent or chemical surface damage.
