Top Applications of PET Anti-static and Conductive Component Trays in the electronics and electrical Industry

2026-10-02 Plastic News 0 views

Electronics and electrical buyers increasingly specify anti-static and conductive component trays instead of injection moulding or corrugated board. Here is where they are used and why they work.

Use it as a working checklist when you write your next enquiry.

Product Overview

This category covers a family of products rather than a single item. In practice a buyer defines anti-static and conductive component trays by three things: the base resin, the format or dimension, and the performance or certification level it has to meet. Typical options in this category include carbon filled black grades; standard JEDEC and custom matrix layouts; gauge 0.40 to 1.20 mm. Materials most often specified are Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene, Polycarbonate, Polystyrene, Polyethylene Terephthalate, and the choice between them changes stiffness, temperature resistance, chemical behaviour and price.

In the electronics and electrical sector the decision is usually driven by ESD protection and dimensional accuracy, with cleanliness as a secondary requirement. Typical end uses include battery packs, component trays, device inserts.

Key Material Properties

These figures are typical for commercial grades and should be confirmed against the supplier's certificate for your specific lot.

MaterialDensityTensile strengthService temperature
Polystyrene1.04-1.06 g/cm³30-50 MPa-20°C to 70°C
Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene1.04-1.06 g/cm³30-50 MPa-20°C to 80°C
Polyethylene Terephthalate1.35-1.40 g/cm³50-70 MPa-40°C to 70°C

Polyethylene Terephthalate is frequently the default selection here: High IV PET resin is the reason a 1.5 L bottle can be light yet hold carbonation pressure.

Where Anti-static and conductive component trays Is Used in electronics and electrical

In the electronics and electrical sector, these are the applications where this product has proven itself.

  • accessory blisters – RoHS compliance
  • device inserts – ESD protection
  • connector carriers – dimensional accuracy
  • component trays – ESD protection
  • battery packs – impact protection

Common Grades and Variants

  • Polyethylene Terephthalate based: excellent barrier to CO2 and moisture
  • Polystyrene based: rigid and glossy
  • Polycarbonate based: outstanding impact strength (250x glass)
  • Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene based: high impact toughness

Beyond the base resin, most suppliers offer UV stabilised, food contact, flame retardant, anti-static and recycled content versions of the same product. Ask which additive package is included, because it is often the difference between a part that lasts three years and one that lasts ten.

Processing and Finishing Options

The route below is the one most factories use for this type of part.

  • Die cutting
  • Resistivity testing
  • Pressure forming
  • Printing

Secondary operations such as printing, welding, machining and assembly are often cheaper to do in the same factory, and they reduce the risk of mismatch between components.

How to Specify Anti-static and conductive component trays Correctly

Use this checklist when comparing two or three supplier quotations.

  1. confirm permanent versus topical antistat
  2. confirm cleanliness requirements for cleanroom use
  3. check dimensional stability at process temperature
  4. specify surface and volume resistivity separately
  5. re-test resistivity after cleaning and ageing

Send this list to your supplier with the drawing and you will receive comparable quotations from every factory you contact.

Frequently Asked Questions

What packing and shipping options are available?

Standard packing is export cartons on fumigation-free pallets, with custom labelling, barcode and retail packing available. We also handle consolidated containers and door to door delivery.

How long does tooling and sampling take?

A new tool typically takes 25 to 45 days depending on cavity count and complexity, followed by T1 samples within one week. Existing tools can usually start production within 10 to 15 days of order confirmation.

Which certifications can you provide?

We can provide ISO 9001 quality system documentation, material certificates, RoHS and REACH statements, and where applicable food contact, flame retardancy or drinking water approvals. Tell us your target market and we will match the document set.

Do you offer samples?

Yes. Standard samples are normally free of charge and shipped within three working days; custom samples are charged at cost and credited against the first production order.

What tolerance can be achieved?

Standard production tolerance follows the relevant ISO or DIN tolerance class for the process; tighter tolerances are possible after machining or grinding, but they add cost. Define the tolerance only on the functional dimensions.

Conclusion

Share your specification and quantity with us and we will recommend the most cost effective material, tooling route and packing method for your market.
