MODUK DEF STAN 93-117 PDF

This Standard specifies the requirements for Static Dissipative Low Density Polyethylene Foam for packaging applications. The foam is used for locating an otherwise unprotected electrostatic sensitive item in a container. Typically, this is used (but not exclusively) in the packaging of certain munitions, which are susceptible to an electrostatic charge.

The material may be suitable for certain applications where compatibility with explosives is a requirement. However, compatibility with all explosives in all environments has not been established and Design Authorities should seek advice on particular applications from the Munitions Section, Defence Packaging, Bld S11, Fort Halstead, Kent, TN14 7BP. Further information may be obtained from Defence Standard 13-102: Testing of Materials which are Required to be Compatible with Explosives.
