The electrostatic is well known phenomena. The fires and explosions caused by electrostatic occur often in the coating mechanical system. This paper presents various cases of electrostatic hazards, reasons why electrostatic hazards are happened, and methods for preventing electrostatic hazards. Generally the electrostatic can be lead to corona discharging, streaming electrification, and impinging electrification in the coating process. Corona discharging happens at electrostatic spray gun with 70 kV. Streaming electrification occurs at mixing process between paint and thinner, and transportation process with thinner. Impinging electrification is shown when the thinner are sprayed to drums. For the purpose of preventing the electrostatic discharge and damage, conductors should be ground, surface electric potential of should be decreased in using electrostatic shielding and ground, and flow of thinner should be controlled acceptable velocity.

With the progress of optical communication technology recently, the development of micro actuator using MEMS technology has been made for optical switching. The actuation types are various; electrostatic, electromagnetic, and electrostatic +electromagnetic etc. Among them, the electrostatic type is the most popular because of the relative ease of fabrication, integration and shielding as well as low power consumption. However, it needs a high voltage to generate a larger driving force. To overcome this problem, we proposed a new type of electrostatic actuator with an extra vertical electrode in addition to the horizontal one. The vertical electrode also lays a role of making the stable angular rotation as a stopper. From the theoretical analysis and experiment, we find the actuation voltage can be reduced up to 50 % of that of the conventional one.

It is a well known fact that the LCD and Semiconductor Devices are a central part of IT industry which is important in the present and the future. But the biggest problem of Semiconductor and LCD manufacturing is maintaining a cleaning room environment. For this reason, the soft X-ray type Ionizer was used as the electrostatic reducer device, which protects damage of the product against electrostatic discharge in the manufacturing process. Therefore it is a essential important factor during Semiconductor and LCD production process. But the soft X-ray has a intrinsic problem with harmful to human being in case of soft X-ray exposure. That's reason we have the research to solve above problem and made an apparatus that it was covered with shielding structure to protect X-ray radiation to outside. And besides, it has a possibility to eliminate the charged electrostatic in the narrow space through the slot for Ion emissions with dual soft X-ray sources on the both side. It is also not make the particles from itself when it has been operated.

It is a well known fact that LCD is a central part of the IT industry which is important in the present and the future. But the biggest problem of LCD manufacturing is maintaining a cleaning room environment and administration. Therefore the purpose of this study is to first, prevent the yield depreciation and damage of products, and second, protect the worker ftom accidental electrostatic discharge during LCD manufacture. The soft x-ray ionizer is a type of electrostatic reducer device. It protects against electrostatic discharge in the cleaning room environment and is a necessary environmental factor during LCD production. The positive aspects of the soft x-ray are its shorter time and wider angle of exposure. But the negative aspect of the soft x-ray is its need for several shielding of protection from the harmful x-ray exposure. On this study, the development of the Air Nozzle-type ionizer to amend and refine some problems. For example, examined the electrostatic reduce device of a soft x-ray type and discovered the ion did not go inside well. also workers to be free from danger. An Air Nozzle-type ionizer is comprised of soft x-ray radiation and ionized air production. Air is injected through the nozzle after being ionized from radiation. It supplies air keeping the same pressure into the end foundation of ion production. The soft x-ray is the structure which radiates ionized air through the nozzle (21 holes) having micro holes of the ionizable radiation after ionizing the inside air by the ion production. A worker does not need a cover to protect against x-rays and the Air Nozzle-type ionizer is easy to set up and is more effective at eliminating electrostatic.

Onset voltage plays a crucial role in the design of a spray microthruster. This paper presents an analytical electrostatic model to predict the behavior of onset voltage in an array of emitters. The basic idea of this method is to superimpose the electric potentials obtained from each individual emitter in an array of emitters. The results show that if one emitter operates and the other neighboring emitters are dry, the potential required for cone-jet spraying generally increases as the emitter spacing decreases (due to electrical shielding). However at very close spacing the potential can decrease. If all emitters operate at the same time, the phenomenon that even at very close spacing the onset voltage required for cone-jet spraying increases merely as the emitter spacing decreases.

The static electricity by thinner flow and discharge energy is investigated experimentally for the purpose of preventing the electrostatic discharge and damage. Test system for evaluating streaming electrification consists of a teflon pipe, a reservoir tank a pump, flowmeters and an electrometer. When dielectric liquid flows through a pipe from one vessel to another, the potential difference generated in the collecting vessel is due to the accumulation of charges. These charges result from the convection of a part of the electrical double layer existing in the tube at the contact between the liquid and the inner wall. When the fluid velocity increases, the electric current increases proportionally. The charging current and accumulated charges by streaming electrification at the thinner velocity of 40cm/s are measured a range of 5 nA and $0.27{\mu}C$ respectively. This amount of static discharge energy generated by streaming electrification is enough to ignite flammable solvent. Therefore surface electric potential should decrease by using electrostatic shielding and ground.

In this study, the effects of counter ion valency of the electrolyte on the colloidal repulsion between two parallel cylindrical particles were investigated. Electrostatic interactions of the cylindrical particles were calculated with the variation of counter ion valency. To calculate the electrical repulsive energy working between these two cylindrical particles, Derjaguin approximation was applied. The electrostatic potential profiles were obtained numerically by solving nonlinear Poission-Boltzmann (P-B) equation and calculating middle point potential and repulsive energy working between interacting surfaces. The electrical potential and repulsive energy were influenced by counter ion valency, Debye length, and surface potential. The potential profile and middle point potential decayed with the counter ion valency due to the promoted shielding of electrical charge. On the while, the repulsive energy increased with the counter ion valency at a short separation distance. These behaviors of electrostatic interaction agreed with previous results on planar or spherical surfaces.

Conductive polymer blends and composites are widely used for different safety application such as electrostatic charge dissipation(ESD), electromagnetic interference(EMI) shielding, electrostatic prevention and safety chemical sensor. In order to prepare a impedance-type humidity sensor that is durable at high humidities and high temperature, electically conductive polymer blends based on diallyldimethylammonium chloride(DADMAC) and epoxy were prepared in this study. The polymer blends type conductive ionomer exhibits reaction each other DADMAC and epoxy in FT-IR and DSC analysis. The blends material was traced by new peak at 1600cm-1 and appeard improvement of thermal resistance by melting point shift. Alumina substrate was deposited a pair of gold electrodes by screen printing. The blend material were spin-coated with a thin film type on the surface of alumina substrate. The polymer bleld type sensor exhibits a linear impedance increasing better than DADMAC coated humidity sensor. Also it shows good sensitivity, low hysteresis and durability against high humidity.

The electrostatic charging/discharging mechanism and its effects, and the system design considerations in the space plasma environment are studied in this paper. The electrostatic discharge (ESD) effects are carefully taken into account for a design of the satellite system at the early stage of the development. Generally, the electrical design requirements are specified to protect the satellite system from the ESD effects in the electromagnetic compatibility specifications. Those requirements are included the grounding, the bonding, the shielding, the conductive coating, the electric interfacing and so on. The space charging is caused by the increasing of the voltage difference between the each locations on the satellite surface. If the space charging is continued up to threshold, it may be occurred the system failure. This phenomenon is depended on the mission of system, electrical and mechanical configuration, system operation, and orbit condition. Therefore the related requirements are properly tailored and concentrated into the safety design.
